REMOTE HEALTH MONITORING USING WIRELESS BODY AREA NETWORK (WBAN)

In the recent research conducted by World Health Organization, by the year of 2020, the number of people aged 65 or older will outnumber children age of 5 or younger for the first time since the beginning of recorded history [1]. Therefore, more of the world population would be left vulnerable to...
