Abstract
The 3G mobile phone has propagation problems in urban areas and experiences severe congestion after major disasters in supporting mobile eHealth. We expect a Quasi-zenith satellite with nationwide coverage. In near future, the data transmission of image of pharygoscopy, motion picture of light reflex, 12-leads ECG, automated ultrasonic echo and vital signs from ambulances shall be performed to assist medical control. For example, Thrombolytic agents are reportedly effective even when injected into a vein, if injected in the early stages of acute myocardial infarction, which will reduce medical costs, resulting in high-quality services available uniformly across the nation. This paper describes Japanese aspects of mobile eHealth to support ambulatory applications.
