Medical Data Compression And Transmission In Noisy Wlans: A Review

Data compression and transmission are becoming increasingly important in the field of computer communication. These techniques are commonly used in medical communities for data exchange in hospital computer networks. Computer-based modeling applications serve as possible approaches in designing easy-to-evaluate medical data communications. This study aims to develop a simulation tool that manages medical data compression and transceiver over noisy Wi-Fi IEEE 802.11b. This paper briefly introduces communication networks and services, wireless communication concepts, transmission technologies, network topologies in hospitals, medical information technologies, and wireless telemedicine systems. This paper also reviews related research, especially studies on data compression algorithms and data transmission standards on Wi-Fi with past, present, and future directions.
