Bioelectrical Impedance Analysis by Multiple Frequencies for Health Care Refrigerator

In this paper, we like to study the bioelectrical impedance analysis and propose a smart refrigerator for ubiquitous health care. A smart refrigerator has an additional function enabling users to keep in track of their health by the newly equipped installation. Also, it is equipped with a body fat analyzer that is used in gym and hospitals in order to receive health care in a ubiquitous environment. This proposed method is measured for body impedance and recognized for body composition by using bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA). Also, we expect that medical center manages user's condition such as amount of body fat, muscle, body water and etc. through internet in a ubiquitous environment. This proposed method has two merits. It can be used to measure more often and much cheaper than body fat analyzer in gym and hospitals. 1. INTRODUCTION As the telecommunication has gradually developed to become ubiquitous, health care also re∞ected the in∞uence of mobile telecommunication progressing from hospitals, telemedicine, e-Health and u- Health respectively. Health care patients will receive, in such ubiquitous environments, treatment in physical environments without being exposed regardless of the time or space. A smart refrigerator has an additional function enabling users to keep in track of their health by the newly equipped installation. This paper's purpose are to measure body composition such as body fat, basal metabolism, muscle mass, etc. by using 'Bioelectrical Impedance Analysis (BIA)', and do health care. The idea of the smart refrigerator was brought up by the fact that it is a home appliance that operates 24 hours which encourages users to check and treat their health condition frequently. The body fat analyzer is incongruent in the gym and hospital in order to measure on occasion. Therefore, the smart refrigerator is proposed for measuring body condition in a breeze at the house. Also, it is proposed for cheaper health care. In this paper, we explain the principle of bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA) for health care through smart refrigerator in ubiquitous environment. Afterwards, we will explain the composition method of smart refrigerator. Also, we recognize that the supposed technique is adaptive through the measurement and evaluation.
