Development Of Zigbee-Based Life Recording And Management System On Mobile Wimax Network In Azumino City

In this paper, firstly, a ZigBee-based sensor network is realized and- evaluations are carried out in order to clarify the fundamental performance of this sensor network. The following evaluations are carried out: first one is an evaluation of the effect on communication time by the co-channel interference, and second one is an evaluation of relationship between throughput and distance. Next, the life recording and management system as an application of ZigBee-based sensor networks is developed based on the results of evaluations, and the system is introduced into the mobile WiMAX network in Azumino city in order to solve some medical problems in local cities. Finally, this paper shows both some examples of visualized physical condition data and the results of field trial test; and the effectiveness and future works of this system are clarified.
