Abstract

Increasing market demand for high performance and portable computing devices requires energy efficient devices. When we considered the network of devices, as in the case of the Internet of Things (IoT), this is important to consider low power design at the sensor level as well as in the Human body communication (HBC) has proven to be an efficient mode of communication for the near-field body sensor network module. In this paper, we propose an architecture for an ambulatory health monitoring system using a body coupled communication channel and we added a new feature that is Global System Module (GSM). In GSM module will collect the emergency data when the human body has an abnormal condition. The proposed architecture can be used to do health monitoring using IoT and GSM. When we use human body communication power reduction was observed. The human body acts as a communication module for these sensors to receive the emergency data in the data acquisition module connected to the internet. By providing an efficient communication channel between the sensors, power dissipation of the human body communication system can be greatly reduced. The physician can have the surveillance of patient's health condition for 24 hours using this system. Using PIC microcontroller low-cost Human Body Communication system can be made.
