Novel Wearable Device for Health Monitoring and Tracking of Soldiers Based on LoRa Module

Internet has changed our life but the internet of things (IoT) is about to change this world all over again. This paper reports state-of-the-art wearable technology for soldiers useful in monitoring their health on battlegrounds including their exact locations using IoT. This device is capable of measuring body parameters like heart rate, temperature, oxygen levels and GPS location. All information will be transmitted through MANET system and LoRa transceivers to base camp using IoT in encrypted format and these data can be used for individual solider analysis and base camp can provide help, medical facility to soldiers if needed. Hence, with use of this proposed embedded system, it is possible to implement a low cost and highly efficient wearable device for health and location monitoring of Soldiers.
