SPECTRUM REALLOCATION WITH PRIORITIZED SCHEDULE

摘要

A medical system includes one or more medical body area network (MBAN) systems. Each MBAN system including one or more MBAN devices which acquire and communicate patient data via a hub device via a short-range wireless communication channel. The communication of the patient data via the short-range wireless communication channel within a predefined spectra. One of the spectra being a spectrum belonging to a third party primary user. The hub device receives patient data communicated from the one or more MBAN devices and communicates with a central monitoring station via a longer range communication. In response to the third party primary user requesting the third party primary user spectrum, the hub device reallocates to other spectra based on a priority of an acuity level of services communicated by each hub device.
