Body Sensor Networking, Design and Algorithms

A complete guide to the state of the art theoretical and manufacturing developments of body sensor network, design, and algorithms

In Body Sensor Networking, Design, and Algorithms, professionals in the field of Biomedical Engineering and e-health get an in-depth look at advancements, changes, and developments. When it comes to advances in the industry, the text looks at cooperative networks, noninvasive and implantable sensor microelectronics, wireless sensor networks, platforms, and optimization―to name a few.

Each chapter provides essential information needed to understand the current landscape of technology and mechanical developments. It covers subjects including Physiological Sensors, Sleep Stage Classification, Contactless Monitoring, and much more.

Among the many topics covered, the text also includes additions such as:

• Over 120 figures, charts, and tables to assist with the understanding of complex topics
• Design examples and detailed experimental works
• A companion website featuring MATLAB and selected data sets

Additionally, readers will learn about wearable and implantable devices, invasive and noninvasive monitoring, biocompatibility, and the tools and platforms for long-term, low-power deployment of wireless communications. It’s an essential resource for understanding the applications and practical implementation of BSN when it comes to elderly care, how to manage patients with chronic illnesses and diseases, and use cases for rehabilitation.

Saeid Sanei is a Professor of Biomedical Signal Processing and Machine Learning at Nottingham Trent University and a Visiting Professor to Imperial College London, in the United Kingdom. His major contributions in advanced signal processing techniques such as tensor factorization, cooperative networking, compressive sensing, statistical signal processing, and subspace analysis have applications in physiological signal processing and sensor networks as explored in his three published monograms and over 400 publications.

Delaram Jarchi is currently a Lecturer at Essex University. She has been working intensively on sensor networks design and algorithms levels. Her research is focused on designing new algorithms and validation of commercial wearable sensors for robust estimation of physiological parameters such as heart rate, respiratory rate and blood oxygen saturation levels in very unobtrusive ways. She is a senior member of IEEE since 2018.
