Abstract
Ubiquitous home health monitoring system requires a repository to archive and maintain biosignal data for further using the data in a close clinical examination. This paper describes a central repository to integrate the biosignal data which comes from different types of sensors or devices in the remote smart homes. Using MFER standard, we propose a web-based approach to transferring the measured biosignal data to the central repository. It shows that MFER standard is useful for communicating and storing the biosignal data. For supporting ubiquitous access to the data stored on the central repository, we developed web services for different types of user groups. The Java applet program was developed for proving an interface that allows easily viewing the biosignal data in MFER format.
