Abstract

CareNet is an integrated wireless sensor environment for remote healthcare that uses a two-tier wireless network and an extensible software platform. CareNet provides both highly reliable and privacy-aware patient data collection, transmission and access. This paper describes our system architecture, software development, and the results of our field studies.
