中文摘要 依據內政部資料統計，我國65歲以上高齡者有23%不與親子家人同住，屬於自我照顧型的年長者。獨居年長者的顧慮，不僅是年長者有被關心的需要，且因現實條件而分居於外地的家人，依舊牽掛年長者的健康與生活安全。基於我國文化特性，孩子通常還是年長者的主要照護者，這些照護包括經濟、健康以及情感支持等層面，在現今高齡化的社會裡更是中生代沉重的壓力。
本研究以獨居年長者以及其遠距家人作為共同的研究對象，希望透過建構一個以智慧科技為基礎的感動關懷與家庭聯繫(Family bond)。計畫所提之智慧無線環境感測網絡，有別於過去智慧屋裝設不易的集中感測，使用耗能的ZigBee或WIFi與穿透性不佳的藍芽等通訊，本計畫使用低功耗且具穿通性的SublG無線通訊，連接獨立的各種感測節點，由橋接器透過乙太網路連接雲端伺服器，除提供子計畫一所需資料，照護者可由子計畫五提供之APP得知長者狀態，協助居家安全與即時互動（子計畫二和三）。本研究除提供架構可自由擴充與架設容易之智慧無線感測網絡外，亦協助年長者在居家生活中與遠距家人維繫家庭凝聚力，並涵蓋研究科技產品如何妥善溫合地融入居家生活場域，提供其他四個跨領域子計畫的感測設備，造福自我照顧型獨居高齡者與其家人。

Development and design of the family bond intelligence wireless sensor network for the independent senior who lives alone

English Abstract According to the Ministry of Interior Survey in Taiwan, nearly 23% of elderly parent does not live with family. Those elderly are mostly self-caring. Under realistic conditions of separation, issues concerned to elderly living alone are related domestic caring, elderly’s health, safety of life, and their mood state. As the Taiwan culture, children are usually the primary caregiver to their elderly, and these care, including economic, health, and the level of emotional support.
In this study, we focus on the seniors who live alone and their distance families, hoping to establish an intimately family bond through intelligent technology. An intelligent wireless sensor network structure is proposed in this project. Unlike the hard-installation of the normally intelligent house, the high power consumptions of the ZigBee and WiFi, and the low penetration of the Bluetooth, the Sub1G communication is selected, due to its low power consumption and penetration. The different sensor nodes are connected to the Cloud server via Ethernet by the bridge. And then, the elderly’s living record will be provided to other subproject I, the APP provide from subproject V will show elderly’s living status to Caregiver, and the safe and interactivity with family will be supported in subproject II and III. The advantages of the proposed structure are easily-installation and easy-extension. In this project, we explore ways to help older with distant family members to maintain family cohesion, as well as how to accomplish the moderate intervention and application for intelligence technology in domestic life.Keywords：family bond, wireless sensor network, Sub1G wireless communication
