The invention discloses a human body falling monitoring method and a device based on acceleration and height information. The device comprises a sensing module, a processing and controlling module, a communication module, a wear detecting module and a power supply module. The sensing module provided with an accelerometer and a height gauge is connected with the processing and controlling module based on a low power consumption single chip computer, and continuously monitors the acceleration and height change of a wearer in daily activities. The wear detecting module checks the wearing method of the device. The processing and controlling module starts a bluetooth communication module to send alarm information when the device judges that the wearer falls according to collected acceleration and height data. A wearing buckle capable of being placed on a waistband of the wearer comprises a magnet, and therefore the device is capable of inspecting whether position-wearing is achieved. The human body falling monitoring method and the device based on the acceleration and the height information has the advantages that falling occurrence can be found accurately and timely by means of combination of continuously monitored acceleration information and height information, energy consumption is reduced by means of a low-power design and high energy efficiency management, and therefore long-term and continuous working is achieved.
