“…Location of a device is a vital requirement of CR based healthcare system to resolve the EMI issue, device priority and transmission power calculation of CR devices [11][12][13]. Most of the authors have suggested RFID, GPS and indoor positioning system o locate the co-ordinate of CR device [11][12] [18][19].…”

“…The advantage of two trans-receiver is that one receiver is dedicated for continuous spectrum sensing & and another is used for data and CCC. Global common control channel (CCC) should be considered in future healthcare system to reduce the transmission complexity [8][9] [11][12] [18][19]. Another proposition (from Fig.2) is that both life supporting and nonlife supporting non-real-time WMTS device only sensed the WMTS Band (608-614, 1395-1401, 1427-1432 MHz).…”

“…To avoid the EMI problem and co-channel interference, cognitive radio techniques can be used in a healthcare environment [11][12][13]. Most of the literature supports homogeneous network architecture based infrastructure [11][12][13][14] [ [18][19]. For the senior citizen healthcare facility like hospital, it is obvious to consider the heterogeneous network and architecture.…”

Recently, wireless communication in medical data and patient information transmission has received tremendous attention to the researchers since effective, timely, accurate, complete and unambiguous communication reduces errors and results in improved patient safety. However, wireless communication technology in a healthcare environment poses some major challenges. For example, medical band scarcity for future wireless healthcare system, bandwidth restriction, spectrum utilization and electromagnetic interference (EMI) are major concerned. In addition, different types of e-health applications have different priorities. Therefore, communication protocols and network maintenance policies for wireless healthcare need to be priority mechanism agile. Compared to traditional wireless network, cognitive radio network (CRN) can be more flexible and solve these problems. In this paper, a novel CRN based hospital system architecture namely CogMed, is proposed for e-health applications where priority mechanism aware heterogeneous architecture, system design and communication policies are included. The article first analyzes the shortcomings of recent wireless healthcare facility by critically analyzing the contemporary literatures on CRN centric healthcare facility. It then proposes a fully opportunistic network based hospital system architecture where dynamic spectrum access (DSA) capable medical, non-medical and sensor devices are categorized based on a dynamic priority management mechanism. The paper also presents some communication protocols.

“…The survey compares the different MAC protocols and discusses challenging open research issues. Another important proposal in this CR eHealth infrastructure context is the result of the work of Dong et al (2011). This more detailed architecture which describes the exchanges between various equipments, suggests the implementation of CR modules exclusively by the sensors forming the personal area network (PAN).…”

In this paper, we investigate the use of cognitive radio systems in medical data transmission. Therefore, based on the state-of-the-art, we propose a complete cognitive-radio communication architecture for eHealth systems. The goal is to point out significant technical challenges required for more flexible and effective transmissions in eHealth contexts. After that, we study connectivity, interference management and performance criteria in cognitive-radio based eHealth systems. For connectivity, we show that cognitive-radio technology allows exploring opportunistically frequencies to find available channels. Then, to avoid interference, we propose a strategy-based management plan to reduce disruption risks. An example of strategy, frequency hopping, is then implemented and tested. Finally, we analyse the performance of our proposal for some categories of medical data. We propose therefore a function that reinforces the cognitive radio decision-making and spectrum sharing modules by controlling some quality parameters.

Abstract-The communication infrastructures and devices in hospitals are becoming increasingly wireless because of doctors and nurses are mobile in their work. On the other hand, the hospital patient's communications or their monitoring generates lot of electromagnetic waves. In this context, deployment of wireless networks should not only meet some performance requirements but should also be aware and able to control the interferences. Cognitive Radio Networks (CRNs) seem to be suitable for delivering high-quality communication services and mitigating radio interferences in hospital environment. In this paper, we discuss the design of hospital networks above CRNs to overcome current constraints.
