Abstract

In this paper, we present the pervasive healthcare monitoring (PHM) system whose cloud devices by medical wearable wireless sensors and planar super wideband (SWB) antenna proper to multimode biomedical applications, meeting the requirements of ubiquitous healthcare. The novel scenario is suitable for mobile patient station (MPS) by using a cloud computing for promising healthcare monitoring applications. The PHM system with the wider operating cloud resource will availably extend channel capacity exceeding many times than the conventional narrowband healthcare system, lack of an ambient way for vital signs transmitting. The proposed compact cloud device can widely offer radio cloud resources whose impedance bandwidths at least cover 1.69~20GHz. This broadband cloud device with compact characteristic not only providers short/long distance transmitting cloud resources, including Bluetooth, ZigBee, UWB, DCS, PCS, UMTS, WiMAX2600, and LTE2500 system but also the one by utilizing cloud computing gives emerging real-time healthcare monitoring for mobile/nomadic elderly people.
