Abstract :
With the personal request for treatment and the pressure of decreasing accident, it is necessary particularly to use a new technology in hospital. Using ZigBee wireless network, the information of patient will be send to doctor more faster than ever. This will reduce treatment time and cost largely. At the same time, the efficiency of examining ward will be improve. On the other hand, it will avoid treatment accident that is brought by bad handwriting probably. The application of mobile monitor based on ZigBee wireless mesh network is present in the paper. In hardware, an ARM architecture high-powered, low-cost chip(Samsung CPU S3C2410) act as the gateway node processor. The ATmega1281v is the processor for terminal sensor node. Wireless chip CC2420 and AT86RF230 are adopted in the two different sensor node respectively. In software, UC/OS-II multitask operation system is used. It is a indeed real time operation system suited for industrial control and better than anyone else.
