Description
Summary:碩士 === 國立臺灣海洋大學 === 電機工程學系 === 101 === This thesis developed a cellular/iridium blood pressure and body temperature remote measurement platform. The advantages of adopting a cellular digital data system include rapid wireless transmission speeds and reduced costs. Employing an iridium digital data system eliminates the environmental limitations of the cellular base station signal. For example, the iridium digital data system can be used at sea or in marine environments. However, the transmission rate of the iridium digital data system is 1 kbps, substantially less than that of the cellular digital data system. Therefore, this study developed a cellular and an iridium blood pressure and body temperature remote measurement system. The cellular measurement system comprised the following three function modules: 1) blood pressure and body temperature measurement, 2) webpage upload and download, and 3) webpage comment and communication. The iridium measurement system contained the following three function modules: 1) blood pressure and body temperature measurement, 2) file transfer protocol upload and download, and 3) message comment and communication. Field tests were conducted on National Highway No. 1, between Keelung City and Taipei, and at Taipei Train Station, the Port of Keelung, and between the Port of Keelung and Keelung Islet. The results indicated that the cellular/iridium blood pressure and body temperature remote measurement system developed in this study exhibited excellent performance regarding remote measurements.
