Abstract :
This article described the emerging wireless networking technology to analyze its applicability and advantages in monitoring human health in the home environment. This application was carried out by setting up a star-shaped structure of wireless sensor monitoring network, for the characteristics of care for the elderly and monitoring requirements; putting forward the whole structure of physical condition monitoring system for the elderly; and further exploring the structure and function of major nodes and the modules.
