Abstract :
This article deals with design and implementation of experimental wireless network for basic physiological data transmission from patient to medical staff. Low energetic consumption and system simplicity was the main importance of design. Information about body temperature, pulse rate and battery level are transmitted using ZigBee standard. This network is suitable for any sensor data transfer in long-term interval. The results of measurements are interpreted by PC.
