SOLDIER HEALTH MONITORING & POSITION TRACKING USING GSM MODULES

Abstract

The soldier Health and Position Tracking System allows military to track the current GPS
position of soldier and also checks the health status including body temperature and
heartbeats of soldier. The System also consists extra feature with the help of that soldier can
ask for help manually or send a distress signal to military if he is in need. The GPS modem
sends the latitude and longitude position with link pattern with the help of that military can
track the current position of the soldier. The system is very helpful for getting health status
information of soldier and providing them instant help. the security system of the nation
depending upon the enemy’s war and so the security of the soldiers is considered as an
important role in it. Concerning the safety of the soldiers, there are numerous tools to observe
the health condition of the soldiers .The proposed system uses GPS to track the direction of
the soldier in the form of latitude and longitude values. So that direction can be found easily.
The proposed system can be mounted on the soldier’s body to track their health status and
current location using GPS. These information will be transmitted to the control room
through IoT. The proposed system comprise of tiny wearable physiological equipment’s,
sensors, transmission modules. Hence, with the use of the proposed equipment, it is possible
to implement a low cost mechanism to protect the valuable human life on the battlefield.
Designing of this system using GPS and GSM gives a wireless system for tracking the
location of the soldier and observing the heart beat rate and body temperature of the soldier.
