Energy harvesting Internet of Things health-based paradigm: Towards outage probability reduction through inter–wireless body area network cooperation

Abstract

In today’s healthcare environment, the Internet of Things technology provides suitability among physicians and patients, as it is valuable in numerous medicinal fields. Wireless body sensor network technologies are essential technologies in the growth of Internet of Things healthcare paradigm, where every patient is monitored utilising small-powered and lightweight sensor nodes. A dual-hop, inter–wireless body sensor network cooperation and an incremental inter–wireless body sensor network cooperation with energy harvesting in the Internet of Things health-based paradigm have been investigated and designed in this work. The three protocols have been named and abbreviated as follows: energy harvesting–based dual-hop cooperation, energy harvesting–based inter–wireless body sensor network cooperation and energy harvesting–based incremental inter–wireless body sensor network cooperation. Outage probabilities for the three designed protocols were investigated and inspected, and mathematical expressions of the outage probabilities were derived. The simulation and numerical results showed that the energy harvesting–based incremental inter–wireless body sensor network cooperation provided superior performance over the energy harvesting–based inter–wireless body sensor network cooperation and energy harvesting–based dual-hop cooperation by 1.38 times and 5.72 times, respectively; while energy harvesting–based inter–wireless body sensor network cooperation achieved better performance over energy harvesting–based dual-hop cooperation by 1.87 times.

Body-to-Body Cooperation in Internet of Medical Things: Toward Energy Efficiency Improvement

“…Combining type-2 fuzzy logic and a fuzzy ontology greatly improved the prediction accuracy of a patient's situation and the accuracy rate for medicine and nutrition suggestions. Energy harvesting IoT health-based outage probability reduction, utilising inter-wireless body area network cooperation is introduced in [21]. Finally, a WBSN in an IoT health-based application, with the aim of minimizing delay and energy consumption is studied in [22].…”

“…The limitations of the proposed protocols in [8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15][16][17][18][19][20][21][22] can be elaborated as follows: (1) the cooperation between hybrid devices (such as sensors, Wi-Fi, smart devices, and so on) was not considered; (2) the cooperation between different WBSNs in IoMT was not studied; (3) finally, neither energy efficiency nor outage probability have been analysed in an IoMT environment.…”

“…where β FF is the transmission rate from the sensors to the coordinators (first phase), and β SF is the transmission rate from the coordinators to T2 (second hop). Finally, if we insert Equations (21) and (22) into Equation 20, we obtain E * .…”

Reliable data transmission: An IoT health-based paradiam

“…There are various major types of IoT services, from the industrial applications to eHealth care applications. In this research, the smart wearable/implants sensors, machine devices attached on or inside a human body for monitoring in a hospital digital healthcare system are considered, for the purpose of gathering information about the wellness and illness level of a person on heart pulsation, blood pressure, blood sugar level, etc., through sensors on fashion electronics [1][2][3][4].…”

IoT for health-based system: analog network coding with energy harvesting

“…The IoT has been a developing eco-system which merges durable equipment, gadgets, materialistic things, software, as well as organisms which include humans and other creatures on some networking that makes them able to react, connect, gather as well as reciprocate information, and there are different major types of IoT services, from the industrial applications to eHealth care applications. In this work, the smart wearable/implants sensors, machine devices attached on or inside a human body for monitoring in a hospital digital healthcare system are concerned, for collecting information concerning the wellness and illness relative level status of a person for the pulsation of the heart, the pressure of the blood, blood sugar level, etc., throughout sensors on the fashion electronics [1][2][3][4].…”
