Design of Medical Monitoring and Locating System Based on GPS and GPRS

Article Preview

Abstract:

According to the difficulty of monitoring special patients in hospitals as well as their inclination to getting lost when going out alone, the design of a personal medical monitoring and positioning system is presented based on GPS and GPRS. The system receives navigation and position information continuously from a GPS satellite through GR-87 receiver module, and real-time sends the information of vital signs and position to the monitoring center in the hospital or a GPRS cell phone terminal with SIM300 module through GPRS network, so as to perform long-distance medical monitoring and location tracking to a patient, with such advantages as high positioning precision, good real-time performance, low power consumption, etc.
