Abstract: The overall health and performance of military personnel can now be improved with the Soldier's Health Monitoring and Position Tracking System, which is employing new technology in an integrated way. With a health monitoring and position tracking function, military commanders will now have full situational awareness, as, additionally using real-time monitoring of health and accurate position tracking, they can obtain the following health indicators (heart rate, temperature and blood oxygen levels) for each soldier, as well health status of individuals enlisted to implement the mission they are working on (mission parameters proscribed in terms of performance metrics), either by alerting them of a potential health problem at the command centre (i.e., soldiers in the field are always monitored) which can be acted upon from the command centre that is exercised in response to abnormal health indicators. The system relies on new global positioning (GPS) and inertial navigation systems (INS) to accurately report each soldier's position in the field, and the geographic data acquired can track and disseminate their health information in real-time. The integrated capability of geo-spatial information and health monitoring information gives commanders the full picture of the troops' health status and location. Commanders and their command teams, with the health and tracking information provided by the system, can make informed decisions and health status of soldiers based on real-time health monitoring and positional data, and, through the System's user interface, be visible with an intuitive dashboard. The data is relayed through the Internet of Things (IoT) to the command centre. Specific components of the proposed system include gearbox modules, portable physiological monitoring devices, and sensors and senders.
