Electrical Engineering Computer Engineering Body Area Network Remote Healthcare Monitoring Biometric Sensors Bluetooth Low Energy ARM-based Microcontroller Body Area Networks are beneficial in many applications including fitness tracking and remote healthcare monitoring. This thesis discusses system enhancements to the award-winning Ohio University Body Area Network system which senses heart rate, integrates an inertial measurement unit, and measures ambient temperature. An upgraded ARM-based Nordic microprocessor was implemented to collect and process biometric sensor data and utilize low-energy Bluetooth (BLE) to transmit data via a Bluetooth antenna. Data is received on an updated Android application running on a handheld Nexus 5 Smartphone. Power received measurements were performed to compare the Baseline and Enhanced systems using several Bluetooth antenna solutions including an e-textile spiral antenna, a traditional inset-fed patch antenna, and a printed monopole antenna. 2017 English text Ohio University / OhioLINK http://rave.ohiolink.edu/etdc/view?acc_num=ohiou1512032652244955 http://rave.ohiolink.edu/etdc/view?acc_num=ohiou1512032652244955 unrestricted This thesis or dissertation is protected by copyright: all rights reserved.
