Abstract:
People with mental illnesses are group of people who need special care and constant attention.
Although their abilities to think and control their actions are limited - or may be disabled, they
still can move easily and don’t stick to their places where they are assumed to be. Thus, there
is a substantial need to be aware of their locations to guarantee their safety. For that, an indoor
monitoring system based on location determination was designed especially for hospitals and
treatment centers. The system exploits ZigBee technology to enable patient’s monitoring. The
location of each patient was determined using artificial neural networks through the received
signal strength measured from ZigBee transceiver attached to each patient. Results are displayed
on a pre-uninstalled map and are stored together with relative important information about each
patient in a secured database. The system was able to localize patients at room level in real
time with accuracy of 97%.
