摘要：

The small size and low power consumption of the radio module, use of spread spectrum, and the design for short-range transmission make Bluetooth(TM) an attractive option in medical sensors. Since Bluetooth(TM) will continue to be a feature found in many devices, it is worthwhile to investigate in its use in wireless medical sensors for home-based tele-healthcare. A wireless stethoscope has been implemented using Bluetooth(TM) and PCM encoding. Preliminary results show that it is a feasible solution for transmission of heart and lung sounds. Design of a Bluetooth(TM) wireless ECG is also proposed.
