TL;DR: A multi-tier telemedicine system that performs real-time analysis of sensors' data, provides guidance and feedback to the user, and can generate warnings based on the user's state, level of activity, and environmental conditions is introduced.

TL;DR: The authors' prototype sensor network for health monitoring that utilizes off-the-shelf 802.15.4 compliant network nodes and custom-built motion and heart activity sensors is described and the authors' solutions for time synchronization, power management, and on-chip signal processing are presented.

TL;DR: This paper presents hardware and software architecture of a working wireless sensor network system for ambulatory health status monitoring that consists of multiple sensor nodes that monitor body motion and heart activity, a network coordinator, and a personal server running on a personal digital assistant or a personal computer.

TL;DR: Although the initial WBAN prototype targets ambulatory monitoring of user activity, the developed sensors can easily be adapted to monitor other physiological parameters and the need for standardization in this dynamic and promising research field is discussed.

TL;DR: State of technology is presented, promising new trends, opportunities and challenges of body area networks for ubiquitous health monitoring applications are discussed and a new generation of personalized monitoring systems will allow users to customize their systems and user interfaces and to interact with their social networks.
