Using Wavelets to Improve Quality of Service for Telemedicine

Broadband is the common form of telecommunication used for Intensive Care Unit (ICU) telemedicine. However, in rural areas, bandwidth demand can easily outstrip the revenue realizable that is needed to pay for the network infrastructure investment so lower bandwidth is normal. A consequence of restricted bandwidth on access pipes is service contention at the customer site. To address these challenges we need to consider Quality of Service issues before we can successfully deploy a successful ICU telemedicine system. Quality of Service refers to the set of technologies and techniques for managing network traffic with the goal of providing a certain level of performance to a data flow in a network. In this paper we will discuss how the use of data wavelets as a form of data compression of ICU data makes for better use of broadband in rural areas and, in turn, improves Quality of Service in telemedicine.
