DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): This proposed project aims to develop an advanced telemetry system for body worn continuous glucose sensors using a new radio based on distance-bounded ultra wideband impulse radio technology for secure, reliable, low cost, low power body area sensor networks. There has been an increasing interest in body area sensor networks due to a number of factors. The technology for low power radios and microprocessors, due to improved silicon technologies, has dramatically increased the capabilities and miniaturization of sensors for health monitoring. Furthermore the number of older Americans (65+) has been increasing and is projected to continue to increase significantly in the future. According to the administration of aging, the older population numbered 39.6 million in 2009 and is estimated to be about 72.1 million in 2030. There is a desire to use technology to help the older population maintain independent lives for increased quality of life and decreased health care costs. There are many research projects and some products that use existing wireless technologies such as Bluetooth, Zigbee, and others. These technologies have been used primarily for their ubiquity as opposed to being the optimum solution. The use of these technologies and more specifically the frequency spectrum that they occupy is increasing dramatically with smartphones and other mobile devices, wireless home networks, etc. causing increasing levels of interference. Another issue with utilizing standard wireless technologies in their current state is privacy and security. The proposed radio technology will include a combination of security technologies including encryption and distance bounding to provide a reliable low power, low cost link. This is desired for applications where the sensor is being used to directly provide therapy decisions such as a wireless link between a glucose sensor and insulin pump. This proposed new wireless link will provide enhanced security, improved resilience to interference, and lower operating power than existing solutions.

描述（由申请人提供）：本拟议项目旨在开发一种先进的遥测系统，用于使用基于距离受限超宽带脉冲无线电技术的新型无线电的体戴式连续葡萄糖传感器，以实现安全、可靠、低成本、低功耗的体域传感器网络。由于多种因素，体域传感器网络受到越来越多的关注。由于硅技术的改进，低功率无线电和微处理器技术大大提高了健康监测传感器的能力和小型化。此外，美国老年人（65岁以上）的人数一直在增加，预计未来将继续大幅增加。根据老龄化管理局的数据，2009年老年人口为3960万，预计2030年将达到7210万。人们希望利用技术来帮助老年人维持独立的生活，以提高生活质量并降低医疗保健费用。有许多研究项目和一些产品使用现有的无线技术，如蓝牙，Zigbee等。这些技术的使用主要是因为它们的普遍性，而不是最佳解决方案。这些技术的使用以及更具体地它们占用的频谱随着智能电话和其他移动的设备、无线家庭网络等引起增加的干扰水平而急剧增加。在当前状态下利用标准无线技术的另一个问题是隐私和安全。拟议的无线电技术将包括加密和距离限制等安全技术的组合，以提供可靠的低功耗、低成本链路。这对于传感器用于直接提供治疗决策的应用是期望的，例如葡萄糖传感器和胰岛素泵之间的无线链路。这一拟议中的新无线链路将提供增强的安全性、更好的抗干扰能力，以及比现有解决方案更低的工作功率。
