Smart Soldier Monitoring System Incorporating Embedded Electronics

Abstract

A smart soldier health monitoring system using embedded electronics and wireless communications is presented to keep real-time track of conditions of all the soldiers on the battlefield. A wireless body area network (WBAN) is created by treating each soldier as a node and each node consists of different sensors monitoring the condition of that particular soldier which could be integrated inside a uniform or a bulletproof jacket. The attributes tracked by the system are motion and physiological health of the soldier and the environment. After gaining the knowledge of these attributes, the control room can take decisions accordingly and create an effective battle strategy. We center around observing ecological factors, for example, temperature, mugginess, pneumatic force, air quality; actual elements like movement, position, geographic area and wellbeing boundaries like ECG (electro cardiograph), blood oxygen level, body temperature. Besides, camera and mouthpiece are utilized to screen any unfortunate circumstance of trooper. The point of the framework is to diminish the reaction time for any crises with the utilization of implanted framework and WBASN, while being power effective.
