Abstract

In this paper, the Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) system has also been applied in telemedicine, which employs wired or wireless communications to provide hospital information and services. The RFID systems can be used to manage medicine and hospital equipment, track patients care, and help doctors and nursers to keep tabs on their patients frequently and remotely. We use the sensor location and management for Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) and RFID important technologies.
