A wireless sensor network (WSN) signal processing platform is proposed here to handle various sensors interfaces for e-health and energy monitoring applications. The platform consists of a high precision, low power Analog Front End (AFE) block; a high performance digital signal processor with interface to an external wireless Radio Frequency Transceiver, such as Bluetooth or ZigBee RFIC.
