Abstract
A physiological data acquisition system includes an array electrode sensor () having plural electrodes and configured to acquire physiological data; a single electrode sensor having a single electrode and configured to acquire additional physiological data; and a hub that is configured to receive the physiological data from the array electrode sensor and the additional physiological data from the single electrode sensor only along body communication channels. At least one of the array electrode sensor and the single electrode sensor is configured to send an energy request signal to the hub, along the body communication channels. The hub, in response to the received energy request signal, emits radio frequency signals, which are used by the at least one of the array electrode sensor and the single electrode sensor to harvest energy. Alternatively, the hub may be configured to send a wake up signal to at least one of the array electrode sensor and the single electrode sensor before emitting the radio frequency signals.
