A 910MHz high efficiency RF transceiver for Wireless Body Area Network in medical application is presented in this paper. High energy efficiency transmitter and receiver architectures are proposed. In wireless body sensor network, the transmitter must have higher efficiency compared with the receiver because a large amount of data is sent from sensor node to receiver of the base station and sma...

Background: The basic requirements for monitoring anesthetized patients during surgery are assessing cardiac and respiratory function. Esophageal stethoscopes have been developed for this purpose, but these devices may not provide clear heart and lung sound due to existence of various noises in operating rooms. In addition, the stethoscope is not applicable for continues monitoring, and it is u...

This paper concerns power allocation in relay-assisted wireless channels for two-hop transmission. First, the transmitter sends the information to both the relay and receiver parts. Next, in the second hop, the transmitter cooperates with the relay to increase the received signal to noise ratio (SNR), assuming the relay makes use of the Amplify and Forward (AF) strategy. Moreover, it is assumed...

This papers designs the identification method of transmitter recognition in wireless networks by analyzing the wireless networks and the physical frame structure of China Mobile Multimedia Broadcasting(CMMB) system. The method calculates the time from the signal of preset transmitter to the measurement site according to the preset transmitter location information, the measured identification si...

The wireless smart sensors have been proposed not only for high-risk and chronically ill patients but also in the healthcare field. The radio frequency(RF) transmitter is necessary to fabricate wireless smart sensors. This paper presents a proposal of the complementary metal-oxide-semiconductor(CMOS) RF transmitter using pulse width modulation(PWM) method. The major advantage of the PWM is a pe...

This paper presents a wireless smart sensor (WSS) with a thermoelectric sensor, a wireless transmitter and a small spiral antenna on a single package. To transmit a sensor signal, the wireless transmitter was designed to consist of an amplifier, a modulator, an oscillator, a buffer stage and an antenna. The wireless transmitter used dual pulse position modulation for low-power transmission. The...

orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (ofdm) has become a promising method for many wireless communication applications. however, one main drawback of ofdm systems is the high peak-to-average power ratio (papr). selected mapping (slm) is a well-known technique to decrease the problem of high papr in ofdm systems. in this method, transmitter is obliged to send some bits named side informati...
