Wearable Wireless Sensor Network for Mitigating COVID-19 Transmission Through Physical Distancing
The global community is currently facing a critical situation with the widespread transmission of the Covid-19 virus. The rapid increase in Covid-19 cases has necessitated immediate action and treatment. As the World Health Organization (WHO) recommended, maintaining a minimum distance of one meter between individuals is an effective preventive measure to avoid transmission through respiratory droplets. To address this issue, this paper introduces a cost-effective design and implementation of a wearable wireless sensor network using the ESP32 microcontroller and Bluetooth Low-Energy (BLE) technology that promotes physical distancing and contact tracing to mitigate the spread of COVID-19. In this research, we have determined that the safe distance between individuals is 1.5 meters. Proximity testing has indicated that an RSSI value of -62 dBm corresponds to a distance below 1.5 meters. Hence, we set -62 dBm as the distance threshold between wearable devices to ensure safe physical distancing. These wearable wireless sensor network devices are intended to assist individuals in maintaining a safe distance from others, thereby reducing the risk of COVID-19 transmission.
