Abstract

In order to transmit patients´ data with high reliability in hospital, we have developed a spread spectrum medical telemetry system. In this study, we showed characteristics of electromagnetic noise from an electric knife by experiments, and showed system performance of spread spectrum system by ECG transmission experiments. From these results, it was shown that the spread spectrum system had acceptable reliability under the interference from the electric knife
