NIGHT-Care: A Passive RFID System for Remote Monitoring and Control of Overnight Living Environment
2014
AbstractAn Ambient Intelligence platform, NIGHTCare, for remote monitoring and control of overnight living environment is here proposed. The platform, entirely based on RFID passive technology is able to recognize nocturnal behaviors and activities, generates automatic alarms in case of anomalous or pathological events and support diagnostics. The results of a complete test in real scenario are presented, together with a numerical assessment of electromagnetic safety issues.
Human body sensing: A pervasive approach by implanted RFID tags
2011
Starting from the physical evidence that passive RFID systems may be used as self-sensing devices, the feasibility of human monitoring by means of implanted tags is here investigated. The key parameters to master with the purpose to enhance the sensitivity of the implanted radiosensor have been theoretically analyzed and numerically applied to a specific medical problem, i.e. the continuous monitoring of liver cancer evolution. Preliminary experimental results with simplified phantoms corroborate the analysis.
