Sensor node
First Claim
1. A sensor node having a radio-communication circuit and a sensor, for transmitting data measured by the sensor by radio communication, comprising:
- a first board on which an antenna connected to the radio-communication circuit is placed;
a battery for supplying a power to the radio-communication circuit and the sensor;
a case for containing the first board; and
a band attached to the case for fixing the case to a skin, wherein the antenna is placed at a position opposed to the case and corresponding to an upper portion of the case on a first surface of the first board, and the battery is placed at a position corresponding to a lower portion of the case on a second surface of the first board.

Abstract
To secure a stable radio-communication performance in a sensor node, the sensor node with a radio-communication circuit and a sensor, for transmitting data measured by the sensor through radio-communication, includes a first board BO2 on which an antenna ANT1 connected to the radio-communication circuit is placed, a case CASE1 containing the first board BO2, and a band that is attached to the case CASE1 so as to fix the case CASE1 to the skin. The antenna ANT1 is placed in an upper portion of the case CASE1, which corresponds to a 12 o'"'"'clock direction of a wristwatch.
