Handling Medical Emergencies Through Better Interaction With Real-World Entities via GSM

Abstract

This article aims to provide innovative system for tracking and monitoring health objects using RF transmitters and receivers. We begin by proposing a prototype for the system and perform a simulation to check the feasibility of this project before applying it to a real-world scenario. In this simulation model, we test the capability of the transmitter and receiver to communicate effectively and also display the data sent by the transmitter. As a result, highly flexible wireless controlled systems would enable the bridging of the distance between the user and the electronic device. This would provide an easier access to real world entities by just using mobile phones, without the need to be physically present near the object. Also, the addition ensures authenticated access to resources in view of security aspect. The workings of the system can be divided into two phases: phase one contains an RF transmitter and a receiver coupled with a central database; phase two contains a GSM modem with a unique SIM linked to the central data base via GSM network. In the first phase of the system, the RF transmitters are tagged to the objects of everyday use and have the capability to transmit signals and the paired receiver detects the transmission of the tagged object and stores its corresponding location in the central database. This is created specifically for information maintenance of the tagged objects, In the second phase of the system, a mobile phone is used to query the location of any tagged objects based on its availability in the vicinity, by sending a message to the SIM connected to a GSM modem. Object if present, the GSM modem fetches the location and other relevant information from the central database and encapsulates this information into a message which is sent back to the mobile device or phone that has requested the information.
