This paper presents a static indoor patient monitoring scheme using uplink Visible Light Communication (VLC) suitable for hospital environments. VLC is considered instead of RF communication because of health concerns regarding continuous RF exposure to patients for health monitoring. The proposed scheme is designed for transmitting uplink patient data using VLC through On-Off Keying (OOK) modulation. Experiments were conducted with several body-sensors data transmitted using predefined headers. The experiment results show that the proposed VLC based patient monitoring scheme can offer accurate monitoring data transmission with minimal interference with the help of space diversity.[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_separator css=”.vc_custom_1624528584150{padding-top: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;}”][vc_empty_space][megatron_heading title=”Author keywords” size=”size-sm” text_align=”text-left”][vc_column_text]Health care application,Health monitoring,Hospital environment,On-off keying modulations,patient,Radio frequency communication,Uplink data transmission,Visible light communications (VLC)[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_separator css=”.vc_custom_1624528584150{padding-top: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;}”][vc_empty_space][megatron_heading title=”Indexed keywords” size=”size-sm” text_align=”text-left”][vc_column_text]health,monitoring,OOK,patient,VLC[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_separator css=”.vc_custom_1624528584150{padding-top: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;}”][vc_empty_space][megatron_heading title=”Funding details” size=”size-sm” text_align=”text-left”][vc_column_text]This work was supported under the framework of international cooperation program managed by National Research Foundation of Korea (2014K2A1A2048581).[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_separator css=”.vc_custom_1624528584150{padding-top: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;}”][vc_empty_space][megatron_heading title=”DOI” size=”size-sm” text_align=”text-left”][vc_column_text]https://doi.org/10.1109/ISPACS.2015.7432810[/vc_column_text][/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1/4″][vc_column_text]Widget Plumx[/vc_column_text][/vc_column_inner][/vc_row_inner][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_separator css=”.vc_custom_1624528584150{padding-top: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;}”][/vc_column][/vc_row]
