Abstract

Disease detection and monitoring using electronic means called E-disease monitoring cannot be over emphasized. This work goes to the in depth of how infected specimens can be tracked using radio frequency waves, and also how sensed information can be transmitted using sensor tags. The present study also demonstrates the algorithm for the process of RFID-SLT by applying the Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) sensor system designed in Matlab/simulink with sensor-tags in order to indicate how communication is carried out throughout the system. Comparisons were carried out to show the performance of the system with and without the RFID sensor links. The results obtained shows that RFID-SLT can detect certain human body vitals to be able to detect infected specimen at any tag range and the data obtained transmitted to a host network via node tags.
