Abstract :

In recent years, the world is being competitive, and to be in this race the tension & stress of work is increasing . this leads to many health problems specially heart related problems. In recent days , wireless sensor networks are used to structure home-care system in many researches. Wireless sensor networks application for physiological signals communication transmission has many technologies. Such as the Infrared, Bluetooth and ZigBee, etc. Because the angle limit problem of the infrared transmission, and the infrared have not be used for Physiological signal transmission. Although Bluetooth is better than ZigBee for transmission rate, but ZigBee has lower power consumption. Hence, ZigBee is generally used for 24 hours monitor of communication transmission systems. The first procedure of the system that we use the biosensor to measure heart rate and blood pressure from human body, Using Zigbee the measured signal sends to the PC via the RS-232 serial port communication interface. We can send the signal to remote PC or PDA from the internet. In particular, when measured signals exceed the standarwd value, the personal computer will send GSM short message to absent doctor’s mobile phone
