22 - Blockchain for 5G-enabled networks in healthcare service based on several aspects

Abstract

The pandemic crisis caused by COVID-19 is having a significant impact on our daily work and lives. 5G networks are ready to roll out across the world. This 5G technology helps by interconnecting devices with high quality-of-services (QoS) and efficient system capacity expansion. Aside from this, 5G offers other benefits regarding privacy, decentralization, visibility, and data interoperability. Blockchain technology is used in various industries, including electronic banking, health, and consensus mechanism. Blockchain is a new field based on the idea of a digitally distributed network and smart contract that eliminate all intermediary risks. Extending blockchain technology to the Internet of things (IoT) can provide further benefits. Because millions of IoT devices are connected, and more personal data are shared, one of the most critical challenges with 5G technology is authentication. While using blockchain technology, this data should be more secure. Electronic health records (EHRs) have become a common way to store and manage patient data in hospitals. Sharing these records improves the accuracy and efficiency of the current healthcare database management system. This study was conducted by gathering data and implementing applications regularly. In a blockchain, encryption algorithms know to obtain high-quality confidentiality of individual and organizational data. Healthcare knowledge and analysis are indeed essential to all parties, and privacy should still be retained and developed as technology advances. This proposed method provides a distributed ledger in 5G networks to encrypt information in intelligent healthcare systems.
