In May 2015, the first case of Middle East Respiratory Syndrome occurred, leaving 186 patients, 38 deaths, and 16,693 quarantine patients. The government has carried out a monitoring of people in contact with the confirmed or suspected patients to prevent the spread of MERS infection. The management staff conducted monitoring of the quarantine subject twice a day during the 14-day period, to check compliance with isolation. However, as the number of people subject to isolation was increased explosively, such issues as the occurrence of residents occurred due to limitations of management personnel. Managers have also admitted that their home quarantine rules have become nominal when they checked the status of quarantine subject by using a call only two or three times a day, and that it is virtually impossible to control when the departees leave without permission. In this paper, home quarantine equipments and their means of authentication are proposed and verified. As a result of the verification, the proposed methods in this paper are expected to be used later as their own authentication method for home quarantine equipments.
