Sažetak
According to aging trends and strategic orientation for providing higher healthcare standards, assisted living is one of the key research areas in the western world. Fall is the most common cause of injury of an elderly person. Therefore, with its timely detection we can ease its consequences or even avoid death. In this paper, we present architecture developed in Hrvatski Telekom that provides functionalities of automatic alarm notification in case of fall detection and manual notification for the "on demand assistance request". Based on this architecture, the prototype has been built and consists of: wireless fall detection sensor, communication gateway, home router and server. This architecture and prototype has been described in more detail, along with its performance benchmark of fall detection ratio, wireless coverage, energy efficiency and quality of communication channel.
