Problem • Lack of organization • Potential loss of external notifiers • Guarantee of transmission http://diamondtennisbraceletss.com/wp-content/ uploads/2011/09/medical-id-bracelets.jpg
Objectives • Data storage • Read / Writeable • Powered
Constraints Objectives • Data storage • Read / Writeable • Powered • Implantation
Data Storage • Non-volatile memory • Minimize power consumption • Encryption http://www.instablogsimages.com/images/2007/02/26/flash-memory-cards_48.jpg
Data Transmission • Ideal Time: < 15 seconds • Obstacle: avoid electromagnetic interference • From other in-band radiofrequency sources • Wireless medical telemetry risks and recommendations • 1395-1400 MHz and 1429-1432 MHz
Nordic Semiconductor • nRF24LU1+ / nRF24LE1 • Benefits: • Transceiver • Flash Memory • Low Power Consumption • Gazell http://em.avnetasia.com/Products/Getway.aspx?plid=56a00e31-afd8-4a01-bb6c-db5218f7297e
