  1. Pascal LOCHELONGUE Project Coordinator

  2. Key Elements • Submitted under EC 6th Framework Program (FP6) • In "Aeronautics and Space" thematic priority • Addresses the development of end to end satellite telecommunication systems for telemedicine applications • Three years project, started on 1 May 2005 • Alcatel Alenia Space coordinates a consortium of 19 partners including :

  3. Four steps approach • Specify & design a modular, standard based and interoperable platform • Integrate and validate solutions that will fulfil end-users requirements • Collection and understanding of end-users needs • Solutions design/integration and industrial validation • Validation of network and telecommunication solutions (star, mesh DVB-RCS, QoS and security mechanisms, performances optimisation ...) • Preparing and validating deployment procedures • Achieve large scale pilot deployment (40 sites) and validation over networks managed by medical leaders • Analyse how to turn the proposed solutions/services into sustainable ones

  4. DVB-RCS Remote SIT End user WS DVB-RCS HUB Management tools Security Applications & services Typical remote SIT Technology focus : DVB-RCS Typical DVB-RCS network architecture

  5. DVB-RCS Technology advantages • DVB-RCS is a mature and fully operational technology : on the forward link, it capitalizes on the success of DVB-S norm for TV broadcast and on the return link, it offers powerful solutions (up to 2 Mbps return) for access and transmission over satellite from anywhere. • DVB-RCS is an open standards technology which secures customer investments in infrastructure by ensuring interoperability with heterogeneous network environment: terrestrial, mobile, wireless, satellite 1W • DVB-RCS supports current and upcoming IP services and provides the network functionality to support new generation of interactive and multimedia applications (high quality video based applications). • The ground network independency of the DVB-RCS satellite solution enables customers currently suffering of the lack of terrestrial broadband networks, to access services at competitive prices.

  6. Telemedicine Service and Medical domains Focus • Focus on three medical domains • Chronic respiratory diseases • Cardiology / Heart problems • Oncology • Concerning four preferred services • Services at home: monitoring and remote assistance to patient located in isolated areas (islands, campaigns, mountains) • Medical training: medical knowledge preservation & dissemination towards medical staff, nurses, auxiliary nursing staff • Second opinion : tele-radiology and interactive video-communication between specialists • Teleconsultation : interactive video-communication between general practitioner/patient and doctor

  7. Where DVB-RCS matches with telemedicine constraints

  8. Project End users dimension • Healthware’s success depends on the users involvement and their acceptance of the proposed solutions/services • Large scaledeployment • Appointment of Medical Leaders who will manage their own medical network • Rely on a real-environment of use and evaluation • Set up of a precise and continuous user-feedback, in order to sustain and adapt each implementation, • Benefit from a fruitful return on experience from all concerned actors and beneficiaries of telemedicine (Medical user communities, Patients, Citizens) which contribute at building the project’s orientations and improving the proposed solutions.

  9. Overview of telemedicine services deployment Jagiellonian University Krakow United Bristol Health NHS Trust Masaryk University Brne University Hospital Toulouse Remifor Cardioexpress / Total Care Networks Telbios Forth University of Cyprus

  10. Mobile Telemedicine WS ECG / Patient monitor WiFi AP PLC Adapter Current electrical installation DVB-RCS Station Zoom on telemedicine services deployment • University Hospital Toulouse (France) • Teleconsultation between nurses and general practitioner concerning elderly residents in a nursing-home in mountain area. • To limit movements of elderly people in the building • To give access to telemedicine services in any place, at any time • ECG transmission

  11. Zoom on telemedicine services deployment • Remifor (France) – Civil Protection • Easily deployable unit • Medical support to operational staff involved in Collective urgency. • Communication with authorities • Video transmission from the field WIFI / GSM / GPRS / GPS

  12. Examples of usage Speech & swallowing disorders Second opinion dermatology Semi-automatic defibrillator
