Abstract :
This article describes the prototype of the digital communication system based on the XBee module. It consists on a universal system that transmits all type of data including the medical information such as Electrocardiogram (ECG). To validate this system, we have chosen to transmit the ECG from a computer to another through the XBee modules just to evaluate the quality of the wireless communication. For this, we have performed a series of indoor and outdoor tests.
