“…Therefore, it is proposed to use GTSSE mechanism using game theory for accessing patient's information with higher security. Ultrawideband (UWB) body sensor node mechanism is designed in [ 2 ] which offers reliable transmission of patient's information with minimum transmission power levels. But, multipath components consume more energy.…”

“…Dynamic Source Routing (DSR) protocol is performed in WBAN with predefined information. The GTSSE approach is compared against the existing Smart Wearable Systems (SWS) for Health Monitoring (HM) (SWS-HM) [ 1 ] and Batch-based Group Key Management (BGKM) [ 2 ] protocol. For comparison, the methods are taken from existing works but the simulation parameter values used are the same for 3 methods as given in Table 1 .…”

“…In this section, we analyze our proposed mechanism with respect to energy consumption, response time, and number of mobile nodes as well as performing the security and performance analysis. We also compare our proposed mechanism with well-known health monitoring schemes known as Smart Wearable Systems (SWS) for Health Monitoring (HM) (SWS-HM) [ 1 ] and Batch-based Group Key Management (BGKM) [ 2 ] protocol.…”

“…Smart Wearable Systems (SWS) for Health Monitoring (HM) (SWS-HM) [ 1 ] have focused on multiparameter physiological sensor systems to measure vital signs. Batch-based Group Key Management (BGKM) [ 2 ] protocol evaluates the static and dynamic conditions by placing the sensor positions at chest, head, wrist, and waist and efficiently maintains the bit error rate. Personalized e-monitoring [ 3 ] with Gaussian process helped in reducing the false alarm rate.…”

Wireless Body Area Network (WBAN) is effectively used in healthcare to increase the value of the patient's life and also the value of healthcare services. The biosensor based approach in medical care system makes it difficult to respond to the patients with minimal response time. The medical care unit does not deploy the accessing of ubiquitous broadband connections full time and hence the level of security will not be high always. The security issue also arises in monitoring the user body function records. Most of the systems on the Wireless Body Area Network are not effective in facing the security deployment issues. To access the patient's information with higher security on WBAN, Game Theory with Stackelberg Security Equilibrium (GTSSE) is proposed in this paper. GTSSE mechanism takes all the players into account. The patients are monitored by placing the power position authority initially. The position authority in GTSSE is the organizer and all the other players react to the organizer decision. Based on our proposed approach, experiment has been conducted on factors such as security ratio based on patient's health information, system flexibility level, energy consumption rate, and information loss rate. Stackelberg Security considerably improves the strength of solution with higher security.

“…Moreover, they have to coexist with several wireless networks while maintaining the high quality of service needed by the transmission of health information [2]. Among wireless technologies, UWB (Ultra Wide Band) is a good candidate thanks to the low power spectrum density and high capacity of transmission it offers [1][2][3]. However, this technology still suffers from interferences due to the other BANs and various wireless networks existing in the patient's environment.…”

Abstract-Interferences in Body Area Networks (BANs) are a great challenge in order to ensure a good quality of service in health monitoring systems. BANs are disturbed by several kinds of wireless communications, as mobile cells or Wi-Fi systems. Thus the wireless optical technology could be considered as a solution to reduce the interference amount. The validity of such a solution is examined in terms of transmitted power and data rate. The novelty of this paper is that this is the first time where diffuse optical wireless technology is considered to achieve "on body" communication, using the multiple reflections of optical beams in the patient room.

Nowadays, clinical examination process requires continuous data for evaluating the patient health. Due to the importance of medical data, wireless sensor network is used to collect the large volume of patient health information. The collected data includes the patient body temperature, blood pressure, heart rate, air flow, glucose level, which helps to provide the initial treatment and avoid serious situation. The gathered information must be transmitted to the health care center without affecting the quality of data because its quality issue leads to create the packet drop, transmission throughput, maximum energy consumption, and delay.Hence, this paper develop the optimized routing protocol called bacterial bee swarm-based hybrid lifetime maximization large-scale mobile ad hoc routing protocol for performing data transmission process. The developed system examines the quality of data while improving the network lifetime in large area of mobile ad hoc network. The optimal path and data quality are continuously monitored and effective path and node are selected based on the bacterial bee swarm functions. Then, the efficiency of the system is evaluated with the help of experimental results in terms of energy consumption, packet delivery ratio, end-to-end delay, and QoS metric related constraints.
