Abstract The goal of the Remote Medical Diagnosis System (RMDS) is to provide assistance to medical personnel on navy ships and at remote locations by providing an adequate consulting link with a physician at some other site. The RMDS utilizes navy communication links and commercial telephone lines for the exchange of patient physiological information and diagnostic/treatment advice. Narrow band-width (3 kHz) hf and uhf radio and satellite communication channels are utilized. The RMDS terminals perform the function of processing analogue physiological information (images, electrocardiograms, (ECG), auscultation, and voice) into a digital format suitable for transmission over the communication links. These terminals also perform the inverse operation of processing the received digital bit streams into analogue information for visual display. The digital data are transmitted at a rate of 2,400 bps.
