IEEE 802.15.4 Wireless Mobile Application for Healthcare System

The new generation of technology that focuses on integrating of existing technologies such as wireless technology and mobile network has great potential to create a well-established quality, wide coverage range, high mobility and enhanced QoS heterogeneous for wireless computing system/application. To go beyond technology, services provided have to be adapted to the users needs and enable access to information in a more flexible manner. With the right implementation, wireless mobile computing devices can be integrated into the healthcare environment. Wireless and mobility transforms the way medical facility functions and deliver the healthcare to patients. This paper describes the developed wireless mobile healthcare application that leverages the wireless capabilities, transforms the medical information and delivers the healthcare to patients. This system is capable to support the real time application to gather and transmits the medical data regardless of the physical location among IEEE802.15.4 wireless network and CDMA cellular network for hospital and home environments.
