health monitoring and tracking system for soldiers using internet of things (IoT)

electronics and communication

The paper reports a health monitoring and tracking system for soldiers based on internet of things (IoT). The proposed system can be mounted on the soldiers body to track the health status and current location of the soldiers using GPS. The information obtained will be transmitted to the control room through IoT. The proposed system consists of tiny wearable physiological equipment's, sensors, transmission modules. Hence, with the use of the proposed equipment, it is possible to implement a low-cost mechanism to protect the soldier's life in the battle field. During wars and military search operations, soldiers get injured and some times the connection will be lost. to find the soldiers and to provide the information about health of the soldier's army based station need global position system (GSM) device for locating soldier's, and a wireless transceiver to transmit the data wirelessly. Upon loosing the connection in the battle field it is necessary for the base station to guide the soldier. The base station can obtain the current status of the soldier which is displayed on the personal computer. The proposed system can be firmly fixed on the soldier's body to track their health status and current location using global positioning system (GPS). Thios information will be sent to the control room through Internet of Things (IoT).
