Wireless Body Area Networks Combined with Mobile Cloud Computing in Healthcare

Abstract: This chapter introduces the combination of wireless body area network and mobile cloud computing in healthcare. The increased growth of low-power integrated circuits, physiological sensors and wireless communication has introduced a new generation of wireless sensor networks. Cloud computing is on high demand, whereas in case of mobile cloud computing the device is much more user friendly to manage the information. The combination of wireless body area network (WBAN) and mobile cloud computing (MCC) promises a… Show more

“…The above discussion provides a deep insight into the potential applications and advantages of 5G in healthcare. The usage of 5G in wireless communication, remote patient diagnosis, and continuous remote monitoring gained a growing interest in telemedicine [ 22 , 23 , 24 ]. The basic concept of telemedicine is that the patient’s biological parameters are monitored using multiple sensors.…”

“…Uma WBAN (Wireless Body Area Network)é uma rede de sensores sem fio (RSSF) utilizada para interconectar sensores implantados dentro de um corpo de uma pessoa ou dispostos sobre o corpo de uma pessoa [IEEE 2011], utilizados, entre outras aplicações, para cuidados médicos Os sensores que formam uma rede WBAN, também conhecidos como motes, possuem baixa capacidade de armazenamento e processamento e possuem restrições de consumo de energia, visto que seu tamanho reduzido não permite que sejam utilizadas baterias com grande capacidade de armazenamento de energia [Goswami et al 2016]. Os sensores são classificados em dois tipos: intrusivos e nãointrusivos [Shankar and Tomar 2016].…”

“…Os sensores comunicam-se normalmente através dos padrões Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) [SIG 2016] e IEEE 802.15.4 [IEEE 2011], de forma que a troca de dados entre esses dispositivos consuma o mínimo de energia. Dessa forma, esses dispositivos têm capacidade suficiente apenas para processar e repassar informação para uma estação-base para posterior diagnose e análise por outros dispositivos computacionais [Goswami et al 2016].…”
