Wireless Medical Sensor Networks and Radio Frequency Identification has been widely adopted in both medical and healthcare industry.This paper deals with the study of a WMSN and RFID based u-Healthcare system.An efficient framework for a u-Healthcare system utilizing RFID and WMSN has been presented.The system is capable of monitoring the patient's medical status by using RFID body sensor and wirelessly transmits the medical data to a local workstation (WMSN gateway) before transmitting it to the central database server.Due to the patient's movements, WMSN node's movements will be patterned with the functionality of the Mobile IPv6.
