The number of heat stroke patients is increasing every year, and it is expected that they will continue to increase due to the effects of global warming. In case of heat stroke it may die if treatment is delayed. One of the causes of treatment delay is that it is difficult to recognize as heat stroke. As a countermeasure, I thought that it is necessary to measure body water content. In this research, we measure body water content from energy attenuation during radio wave propagation. By using radio waves, it becomes possible to measure non-contact or measure only the water content of a limited part. As a result, in addition to measures against heat stroke, it is considered that it is possible to measure changes in the water content of bladder and heart of bedridden patients in hospital. In this paper, we show the measurement result and consideration of the reception intensity accompanying the water content change of the microwave transmitted using the directional antenna. |
