1.4 AIMS AND OBJECTIVES
The major aim and objective of
this design [of a patient heartbeat and temperature monitor using RF.]
is to help the doctors and family members to keep track of the heartbeat
condition of their loved ones [as well as their body temperature] in
the case of an abnormality in the health condition (for those with
heartbeat defects and those that run excessive high temperature beyond
normal). If any varied change takes place, it is notified. This
notification through RF. Channel would to take an appropriate action at
an instance of time, thereby alerting the appropriate persons..
1.5 SIGNIFICANCE OF THE PROJECT
There
are various instruments available in the hospitals to keep track of the
internal body changes, but many of them have limitations regarding to
maintenance, cost, size of instruments, and mobility. This project is so
significant because it is mobile, small in size, cost effective, very
easy to use, highly efficient performance, portable and light in weight
etc. It uses RF. to help both the patient and the concerned doctor to
take an appropriate action.
It is beneficial in terms of cost. It
saves time and is very helpful to patients who lives alone. It offers a
freedom of movement to patients. It has a low power consumption though
the stability of its wireless data communication is still to be
enhanced. To some degree, the wireless data communication via RF has
anti-jamming ability.
1.6 SCOPE OF THE PROJECT
This project
operates at a 30 feet’s distance on open space. It is designed to
operate with an alkaline battery of a minimum of 9 volts to a maximum of
12v consumes 50mA. It uses a buffer, temperature sensor, AT89c51
Microcontroller and a led display with buzzer for the alert. The
hardware and soft ware of the system is oriented towards the AT89c51
single chip microcontroller. Hence, reducing the size of the device. A
regulated 3.7v RF. operates in the frequency range of 415 MHZ per second
used for data transmission, which can easily penetrate over three
floors of a building and go over 30 feet’s in open space.
