Internet of Health Things (IoHT) involves intelligent, low-powered, and miniaturized sensors nodes that measure physiological signals and report them to sink nodes over wireless links. IoHTs have a myriad of applications in e-health and personal health monitoring. Because of the data's sensitivity measured by the nodes and power-constraints of the sensor nodes, reliability and energy-efficiency play a critical role in communication in IoHT. Reliability is degraded by the increase in packets' loss due to inefficient MAC, routing protocols, environmental interference, and body shadowing. Simultaneously, inefficient node selection for routing may cause the depletion of critical nodes' energy resources. Recent advancements in cross-layer protocol optimizations have proven their efficiency for packet-based internet. In this paper, we propose a MAC/Routing-based Cross-layer protocol for reliable communication while preserving the sensor nodes' energy resource in IoHT. The proposed mechanism employs a timerbased strategy for relay node selection. The timer-based approach incorporates the metrics for residual energy and received signal strength indicator to preserve the vital underlying resources of critical sensors in IoHT. The proposed approach is also extended for multiple sensor networks, where sensor in vicinity are coordinating and cooperating for data forwarding. The performance of the proposed technique is evaluated for metrics like Packet Loss Probability, End-To-End delay, and energy used per data packet. Extensive simulation results show that the proposed technique improves the reliability and energy-efficiency compared to the Simple Opportunistic Routing protocol.

“…References [7] proposed a grey-FTPC algorithm using gray prediction and fuzzy inference, which used gray prediction to predict the channel state and then adjusted the transmission power according to the predicted value of the channel. Log Normal and IEEE 802.15.6 CM 3A path loss models were used in References [8] to evaluate similar opportunistic routing mechanisms.…”

Wireless Body Area Network (WBAN) is a modern technology having a wide-range of applications. Reliability is a key performance index for WBANs, especially for medical applications. An unreliable WBAN may severely affect the patient under observation. Main causes of unreliability are inefficient routing, low transmission range, body shadowing and environmental interference. We propose a Cross-Layer Opportunistic MAC/Routing (COMR) protocol that can improve the reliability by using a timer based approach for the relay selection mechanism. The value of this timer depends on Received Signal Strength Indicator (RSSI) and residual energy. The selected relay node will have the highest residual energy and will be closest to the sink as compared to other possible relay nodes. We evaluate the performance of the proposed mechanism in terms of network lifetime, Packet Delivery Ratio (PDR), End-To-End (ETE) delay, and energy used per bit. Results depict that COMR protocol shows improvement in terms of reliability, energy efficiency, ETE delay and network lifetime in a WBAN as compared to Simple Opportunistic Routing (SOR).
