Abstract

The body area networks (Bodynets) are increasingly becoming plausible solutions for on-body sports monitoring. In this paper, we introduce the meanings of Bodynets in daily physical and competitive sports, analyze the systematic structure, and design a Bodynets system for sports activities, which can be applied to daily activities and physical exercises. By means of collecting physiological parameters such as pulse rate, blood pressure, blood oxygen from portable sensors, and of using RFID technology to identify people, analyzers can achieve real-time physiological parameters to make specialized sports plan, which would promote the development of physical sports.

Keywords: body area networks (bodynets) sports monitoring heart rate oxygen saturation (spo2) photoplethysmography (ppg)
