  • Abstract
    When a patient returns home from a hospital, a doctor might still want to monitor the heart condition remotely. An ECG sensor based on wireless sensor network technology can provide this information, but the energy consumption of this solution should be considered. This paper describes the energy trade-off between ECG signal transmissions and on-node feature extraction based on QRS complex detection.
