Abstract

This thesis focuses on the many variables which needed to be considered before adding a wireless capability to an existing custom designed on-body physiological monitoring device. The tradeoffs made in the selection of the link frequency, priority of power requirements, and antenna options, mediated by the limitations imposed by Federal Communications Commission regulations were considered. Results from this initial study were then used to develop the wireless hardware and combine this with the existing on-body device.
