Abstract:
War-fighter Physiologic Status Monitoring(WPSM)is a wireless sensor network that is used to collect,transmit,store and interpret physiologic data from soldiers,sailors and pilots.It can collect and monitor information regarding vital signs such as body temperature,heart rate,blood pressure,hydration and stress levels,sleep status,body position and workload capacity of the warrior.If necessary,the WPSM can notify medics and commanders if the soldier has been wounded or has become fatigued.The structure of the wireless sensor network in the WPSM and the data management of the sensor network are mainly discussed.
