3.5G Based Mobile Remote Monitoring System 30th Annual International IEEE EMBS Conference Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada, August 20-24, 2008 3.5G Based Mobile Remote Monitoring System Aman Bajracharya, Timothy J. Gale, Clive R. Stack and Paul Turner Abstract —Low bandwidth has long been a reason for the called BeyondG and NextG. It is based on a High Speed unsuitability of wireless internet in telemedicine. However with Packet Access (HSPA) network which consists of HSDPA the advent of extended third generation wireless as an (High Speed Downlink Packet Access) for downlink and economically accessible high speed network, more opportunities HSUPA (High Speed Uplink Packet Access) for uplink, are being created in this area of telemedicine. This paper uplink being slower than downlink. 4G, e.g. Orthogonal explores the opportunity created by the latest wireless broadband technology for remote monitoring of patients in the Frequency and Code Division Multiplexing (OFCDM), is the home. future generation of wireless network that boasts potential speeds of up to 100Mbps [7]. This ever-developing I.

Satellite communication [6] is another wireless medication security. It consists of a dedicated server and at communication medium, which despite having high least one Client (Patient) side computer linked via cable or operation costs, has the advantage of world wide coverage wireless broadband internet (extended G). A prominent feature of the system is its portability, so there is no location and a variety of data transfer speeds from 10 Kbps to a high restriction.

Professor, School of Computing Science & Engineering , Galgotias University, Greater Noida, India2 Abstract: Mobile communications systems revolutionized the way of people communication, joining together and mobility during conversation. The word telecommunication is formed from the words TELE (bridging large distance) and COMMUNICATION (Conversation).Telecom has attracted many users and undergoing numerous changes, from half duplex to point-to-point , short message services , conferencing , video calling , point-to-multi- point Internet connectivity to high speed data transfer from (9.6 Kbps to 100 Mbps). In this Paper we abstracting the evolution and development of various generations of mobile wireless technology along with their significance performance of one over the other and some of the important issues pertaining to the evolution of mobile communication networks from 0th generation (which was the initiation of wireless communication).The first generation has fulfilled the basic mobile voice, while the second generation has introduced capacity and coverage. 2G followed by the third generation, which has quest for data at higher speeds to open the gates for truly “mobile broadband” experience. It was further realized by the fourth generation (4G).The Fourth generation is providing access to wide range of telecommunication services, including advanced multimedia application supported by mobile and fixed networks, which are increasingly packet based, along with a support for low to high mobility applications and wide range of data rates.

Mobile Network Operators (MNOs) keep a strict control over users accessing the networks by means of the Subscribe Identity Mod- ule (SIM). This module grants the user to access the network, by per- forming the registration and authentication of the user's device. Without a valid SIM module and a successful authentication, mobile devices are not granted access and, hence, they are not allowed to inject any traffic in the mobile infrastructure.
