Abstract :
A healthcare monitoring system with wireless woven inductor channels is proposed for body sensor networks. A sensor node with the proposed woven inductor channel consumes only 300 uW for sensing and 340 uW for communication with 1 Mbps data rate. The personal sensor controller consumes 8 mW, and the efficiency is 178 times than the previous work.
