1) System background

The main service targets of nursing homes are the elderly, and the problem of aging is more prominent. Because of their older age, the elderly are more or less physically inconvenient, and the degree of self-care is not as good as that of the young, and they are more prone to accidents. The infrastructure construction in nursing homes is becoming more advanced, and they are generally equipped with gardens, fitness venues, entertainment venues, and leisure venues. These facilities first enrich the lives of the elderly and add luster to the lives of the elderly; at the same time, they also bring potential inconveniences to the elderly. Because the site involves a large area, it is impossible for the management personnel to take care of every elderly person in each location. When an elderly person has a problem, it is necessary for the service personnel to find the location of the elderly person and provide corresponding assistance as quickly as possible. Therefore, it is necessary to adopt an effective way to take care of the elderly, and to determine the location of the elderly in the nursing home in real time and provide timely services to them. “Positioning” is even more important.

Based on the actual situation of nursing homes, Shanghai Ti Bigao developed the zigbee nursing home positioning system to provide higher quality care and care to the elderly.

Two) Zigbee introduction

Zigbee is an emerging short-distance, low-rate, low-power wireless network technology. It is a technical proposal between wireless tag technology and Bluetooth. It was previously known as “HomeRF Lite” or “FireFly” wireless technology, mainly used for short-range wireless connections. It has its own radio standard, which coordinates communication among thousands of tiny sensors. These sensors only require very low power consumption and transmit data from one sensor to another through radio waves in a relay manner, so their communication efficiency is very high. Finally, these data can be entered into a computer for analysis or collected by another wireless technology such as WiMax. The basis of Zigbee is IEEE802.15.4, which is a standard of the IEEE Wireless Personal Area Network (PAN) working group and is called the IEEE802.15.4 (Zigbee) technical standard.

Zigbee is not just the name of 802.15.4. IEEE only deals with low-level MAC layer and physical layer protocols, so the Zigbee Alliance standardizes its network layer protocols and APIs. The full protocol is used for 4K bytes that can be directly connected to the basic node of a device at a time or 32K bytes as a hub or router coordinator. Each coordinator can connect up to 255 nodes, and several coordinators can form a network, and there is no limit to the number of routing transmissions. The Zigbee Alliance has also developed a security layer to ensure that this portable device will not accidentally leak its identification, and that this long-distance transmission using the network will not be obtained by other nodes.

ZigBee can use three frequency bands, namely the 2.4 GHz ISM frequency band, the European 868 MHz frequency band, and the US 915 MHz frequency band. The channels available for different frequency bands are 16, 1, and 10. China adopts the 2.4 GHz frequency band, which is a frequency band that is free of application and royalty-free; adopts direct sequence spread spectrum technology DSSS (Direct Sequence Spread Spectrum), and the transmission distance is between 10 and 75 m (increased RF transmission power, up to 500 m) ; The transmission rate is 20~250 kb/s, suitable for sensor data acquisition and control data transmission. ZigBee technology has powerful networking capabilities and can form star, tree and MESH mesh networks.

1) RSSI positioning technology

RSSI[2](Received Signal Strength Indicator) refers to the strength of the wireless signal received by the base station. In the positioning based on the received signal strength indicator RSSI, the transmitting signal strength of the transmitting base station is known, and the receiving base station calculates the propagation loss of the signal based on the strength of the received signal. Some algorithms calculate the position of the node. This technology has low hardware requirements and relatively simple algorithms, and shows good characteristics in a laboratory environment. However, due to changes in environmental factors, it often needs to be improved in practical applications. The received signal strength is a function of the transmit power and the distance between the transmitter and receiver.

RSSI=-(10n•lgd+A)(1)

Among them, n represents the signal propagation constant, also called the propagation index; d represents the distance from the transmitter; A represents the received signal strength at a distance of 1 m.

The relationship between the attenuation of the signal and the logarithmic attenuation of the distance. The shorter the distance between the base station and the positioning tag, the smaller the absolute distance error caused by the deviation of the RSSI value; and when the distance is greater than a certain value, the absolute distance error caused by the RSSI fluctuation will be very large. An unknown base station may receive signals from n positioning tags, so several base stations with a larger RSSI value should be used for positioning calculations, so as to avoid expansion of positioning errors.

2) ZigBee technology realizes the advantages of positioning

1. Low power consumption

Due to the low transmission rate of ZigBee, the transmit power is only 1 mW, and the sleep mode is adopted, so ZigBee devices are very power-saving. ZigBee devices can last up to 6 months to 2 years with only two AA batteries, and their power consumption is much lower than other wireless devices.

2. Low cost

Compared with GPS, the positioning engine is integrated with the MCU in a single-chip ZigBee RF transceiver. The cost is less than 1/10 of the GPS hardware, and the power consumption is only a small part of the GPS hardware, and the ZigBee protocol is royalty-free.

3. Short time delay

The communication delay and the delay of activation from the dormant state are both very short. The typical search device delay is 30 ms, the dormant activation delay is 15 ms, and the active device channel access delay is 15 ms. Therefore, ZigBee technology is suitable for applications that require high real-time positioning.

4. Large network capacity

A star-shaped ZigBee network can accommodate up to 254 slave devices and one master device, and the networking mode is flexible. With the maturity of ZigBee technology, the number of ZigBee devices will continue to increase in the future. ZigBee RF equipment or infrastructure can be used to easily build a ZigBee network, which reduces the cost of ZigBee node design and networking, and uses more ZigBee devices to achieve higher The positioning accuracy.

Three) Program introduction

Every elderly person is equipped with a wristband. The wristband has a built-in zigbee radio frequency card. The card is based on zigbee wireless technology and uses the international 2.4~2.5GHz frequency band. The wristband can actively send information to the outside world. It can transmit the distance from 0 to 1500 meters. After the wristband information is received by the base station, the base station can interpret the information in the card, and then learn which old man’s wristband number is? Where is it? The base station sends the read information to the computer. When the elderly moves to other locations, the computer can monitor the specific location in real time. When an elderly person encounters difficulties anywhere in the community, press the button on the portable wristband, and the computer screen of the supervisor of the monitoring center will immediately display the location of the elderly person, as well as the elderly person’s personal health status, previous diseases, etc. Relevant information provides guidance for medical staff’s quick response and emergency help.
