Real-time performance management of assisted living services for Bluetooth low energy sensor communication
Jonas Wåhslén, Thomas Lindh · 2017
PerfMon is a prototype implementation of a real-time performance management method for sensor data communication in assisted living applications. It is implemented in accordance with the specification for GATT services in Bluetooth low energy (BLE). PerfMon provides a tool for real-time performance monitoring and control for caregivers and service providers. Test results from monitoring and control of packet loss ratio related to alarm thresholds are presented. PerfMon is adapted to cloud-based web services using RESTful APIs and established object models. Performance management is a necessary component in an overall management system of IoT devices for healthcare and assisted living applications.
