Wireless Mesh Network Maternal and Infant Hospital Solution

Recently, Shenyang maternal and child hospital used wireless mesh network technology to complete the laying of wireless network platforms. It is understood that the establishment of the wireless network to achieve the communication needs between doctors and patients, to meet the different requirements of different departments, and fully realize the hospital network information management.

I. project requirements
Shenyang maternal and child hospital has a long history. Since 1960s, the number of obstetric deliveries has ranked first in Shenyang. With the continuous advancement of medical science, the overall scientific and technological level of hospitals has developed rapidly, shenyang maternal and child hospital has evolved from a pure obstetric hospital in history to a modern obstetrics and gynecology hospital integrating medical care, scientific research, and teaching. It enjoys a high reputation in Shenyang and Northeast China. To better serve patients and improve the informatization level of hospitals, hospitals need an advanced network environment with high anti-interference and security. The following requirements must also be met:
? Wireless Internet access anytime, anywhere
? Doctors and nurses can easily access important patient information anytime and anywhere
? Wi-Fi voice service
? Wireless VoIP and video access
? Provides data transmission between departments as a supplement and backup of wired networks

Ii. Wireless Mesh Network Solution
In the end, Shenyang maternal and child hospital adopted adelia's advanced wireless mesh network technology to lay the wireless network platform. Wireless mesh) is also called "multi-hop" network. It is a new wireless network technology that is completely different from traditional wireless networks. In a wireless Mesh network, any wireless device node can act as both an AP and a router. each node in the network can send and receive signals. It also has advantages such as rapid deployment and ease of installation, support for NLOS, flexible structure, and high bandwidth.

1. network coverage Design Scheme
In this solution, the indoor coverage is achieved using the adelia MSR1000 indoor product, and the equipment is placed in the ceiling. To enhance the coverage effect, all the covered antennas adopt ceiling antennas with higher gain, both Radio of MSR1000 are used for overwrite, so each layer must be wired. The Central Square uses adlia MSR2000 outdoor equipment to connect to the Internet through the MSR1000 equipment on the four floors of the Outpatient building.

2. Network Security Solutions
Wireless Network security is a process of continuous improvement and upgrade. The combination of port control technology and encryption algorithm greatly improves the security performance of WLAN.
Azalea NMS is a network management hardware system tailored by adelia for the company's Mesh network management. It connects to the wired network through standard Ethernet interfaces and manages MSR wireless Mesh routers in real time and effectively. The network administrator can access Azalea NMS through a browser or a dedicated client to manage the entire wireless network. Features include topology discovery, device fault management, real-time performance monitoring, and centralized configuration.
Iii. Implementation results
After the implementation of the project, the leaders of the maternal and child hospital accepted the project. Proof of use: the network platform based on the Wireless Mesh Network Technology carries the e-mail and daily management work of the entire hospital, medical staff can access patient information at any time, enhance patient care, save medical treatment time, and reduce medical costs. In addition, wireless networks support VoIP and video access. patients can be monitored by medical staff to greatly reduce the incidence of Medication errors and ensure the safety of patients during treatment.
The head of the hospital information department said that adelia's wireless mesh network technology completely satisfies Hospital Information Management, doctor-patient communication, information storage, and other needs. At the same time, the transmission bandwidth is high, the implementation is convenient, the construction cost is low, and the management and maintenance are convenient. This helps improve the quality of hospital services and the advancement of medical care.
The President of Maternal and Child Hospital said that the perfect application of the high-tech network technology has improved the medical services and the quality of service. This improves the efficiency of medical treatment and greatly facilitates patients. At the same time, the wireless network-based video surveillance system can monitor the behavior of patients in combination with treatment, greatly improving the cure rate of hospitals.
