Abstract
The recent advances in physiological parameters monitoring, biosensor design, wireless communication and computer architecture have enabled the realization of integrated, miniature, low-power, intelligent wireless health care system for monitoring infants. Wireless health care system of infants improves monitoring conditions, community medical and health services not only by monitoring infants safely, reliably, continuously and dynamicly, but also by achieving real-time transmission, display, analysis of the infants health information and alarm the crisis. This paper highlights the latest researches and achievements in this field and also gives a guide to pivotal techniques in wireless health care system of infants. At last, we give a lucid perspective of the development of wireless health care of infants in future.
