Self-powered sensors play an important role in everyday life, and they cover a wide range of topics. These sensors are meant to measure the amount of relevant motion and transform the biomechanical activities into electrical signals using triboelectric nanogenerators (TENGs) since they are sensitive to external stimuli such as pressure, temperature, wetness, and motion. The present advancement of TENGs-based self-powered wearable, implantable, and patchable sensors for healthcare monitoring, human body motion, and medication delivery systems was carefully emphasized in this study. The use of TENG technology to generate electrical energy in real-time using self-powered sensors has been the topic of considerable research among various leading scholars. TENGs have been used in a variety of applications, including biomedical and healthcare physical sensors, wearable devices, biomedical, human-machine interface, chemical and environmental monitoring, smart traffic, smart cities, robotics, and fiber and fabric sensors, among others, as efficient mechanical-to-electric energy conversion technologies. In this evaluation, the progress accomplished by TENG in several areas is extensively reviewed. There will be a discussion on the future of self-powered sensors.

In this paper we present two databases for two different systems each having novel implementation ideas: a u-Healthcare system with a mobile gateway and MAGI network monitoring system. u-Healthcare system is capturing and monitoring vital sign data without restrictions of location and time using body sensor network and a mobile gateway. MAGI is a system which has a dynamic firewall function and solves problems of existing traffic monitoring tools. In addition to presenting the design principles behind these two systems, we describe the respective database schemas together with detailed information of the data stored within the databases. We will also show and discuss performance measurements and calculations for both systems. Based on the performance data we will discuss the systems' suitability for their intended uses.

The Mobile device like smart phone is a small computing device and easy to carry around. The Mobile devices are wildly being used as desktop personal computer and can served individual services. Because of compatibility of applications working on mobile devices are not good, so developer need to develop it that match changes in platform fetures. In this paper, we design and implementate ubiquitous healthcare monitoring system that can be runs on many different platforms using HTML5 as a standard web development language and jQuery as a javascript library. Ubiquitous healthcare monitoring system is runs on on many different platforms like mobile platforms and desktop web browsers.

The aim of this paper is to design and implement a new ECG signal monitoring and analysis method for the home care of elderly persons or patients, using wireless sensor network (WSN) technology. The wireless technology for home-care purpose gives new possibilities for monitoring of vital parameter with wearable biomedical sensors and will give the patient freedom to be mobile and still be under continuously monitoring. Developed platform for portable real-time analysis of ECG signals can be used as an advanced diagnosis and alarming system. The ECG features are used to detect life-threatening arrhythmias, with an emphasis on the software for analyzing the P-wave, QRS complex, and T-wave in ECG signals at server after receiving data from base station. Based on abnormal ECG activity, the server transfer diagnostic results and alarm conditions to a doctor's PDA. Doctor can diagnose the patients who have survived from arrhythmia diseases.

As disease and aging increased on the map of nuclear families, the interests in protecting individual privancy and u-Healthcare has increased as well. Until now, the health management of individual medical institutions have limited their researches on the future of offline diagnostics and treatment works, time and space only to medical services. However, in the future, healthcare through mobile medical devices to real-time online personality, mobility, and bulwark where patients can receive personal health statues anywhere seems inevitable. Therefore, in this paper, the PDA based on the each individual elderly and patients that updates their physical health statues through the signal meter management system can notify both the individual and the hospital when a medical emergency occurs. Additionally, it provides relevant information on the results of measurements monitoring system.

The proposed technique uses cyclic frame structure, where three periods such as beacon period (BP), mesh contention access period (MCAP) and slotted period (SP) are in a data frame. This paper studies on a mechanism to allow communication nodes (6lowpan) in a PAN with different logical channel for global healthcare applications monitoring technology. The proposed super framework structure system has installed 6lowpan sensor nodes to communicate with each other. The basic idea is to time share logical channels to perform 6lowpan sensor node. The concept of 6lowpan sensor node and various biomedical sensors fixed on the patient BAN (Body Area Network) for monitoring health condition. In PAN (hospital area), has fixed gateways that received biomedical data from 6lowpan (patient). Each 6lowpan sensor node (patient) has IP-addresses that would be directly connected to the internet. With the help of IP-address service provider can recognize or analyze patient data from all over the globe by the internet service provider, with specific equipments i.e. cell phone, PDA, note book. The NS-2.33 result shows the performance of data transmission delay and data delivery ratio in the case of hop count in a PAN (Personal Area Networks).

Recently, the Personal Health Device(PHD) that measures various biometric data easily are highlighted for ensuring portability, scalability and interoperability among the device as well as needs for a standardization of managing information measured by. In this paper, we'd like to propose u-healthcare monitoring system that measure biometric data(Oxygen saturation, Body weight, ECG and Blood pressure) by PHD featured with transferring data into devices such as smartphone using Bluetooth Health Device Profile(HDP) based on the ISO/IEEE 11073.

An automated healthcare monitoring is demand of time, lot of problems occurring just because of less monitoring of patients health condition on time. In this paper an embedded healthcare service is proposed by an iSCSI protocol on an automated multi-agent coordination by resource-constrained devices controlled system for healthcare service. The coordination between the resource constrained devices (e.g. PDA, SmartPhone, Tablet PC), and automated agents are maintained by a two-way handshaking mode iSCSI protocol. The automated health care control could be useable, and beneficial in the repetitive way. A fully centralized control is not applicable for this kind of approach.

With the increased attention about health care and management of heart diseases, ubiquitous healthcare services and related devices have been actively developed recently. In this paper we developed a mobile healthcare system which consists of smartphone and patch-type ECG measuring device. This system is capable of monitoring, storing, and sending bio signals such as ECG, heart rate, heart rate variability as well as exercise management functions through heart rate zones. With monitoring bio signal continuously by mobile healthcare system and wearable device like us, people can prevent chronic disease and maintain good health. Here we report our implementation results on real platforms.

To ensure privacy of individual information in remote healthcare service, health data should be protected through a secure technology such as encryption scheme. Only user who delegated decryption right can access to sensitive health data and delegator needs capability for revocating access privilege. Recently, in ubiquitous environment, CP-ABTD(Ciphertext-Policy Attribute-Based Threshold Decryption with Flexible Delegation and Revocation of User Attributes) which extends CP-ABE(Ciphertext-Policy Attribute-Based Encryption) has been proposed for these requirements. In this paper, we construct remote healthcare monitoring system with delegation and revocation capability for attribute in CP-ABTD. Finally, we analyze collusion attack between users in our system.
