Future Aspect of 5G-IoT Architecture in Smart Healthcare System

Abstract

The conventional healthcare system needs more human intervention with healthcare devices, equipment, and patient monitoring. Healthcare is therefore going through an expeditious shift from a conventional hospital and expert-centered way to a dispersed patient-centered way. Healthcare issues are regularly filled by the advancement in technologies like artificial intelligence, 5G, machine learning, Internet of Things (IoT), etc. IoT is a current originating technology used by healthcare service providers to facilitate patients by using smart gadgets and advanced software to improve and monitor the health of the person. These smart healthcare devices produce enormous quantities of data. To increase the overall device efficiency in terms of bandwidth, end-to-end delay, latency, etc., it requires special attention to handle such a large data. Present networking systems such as 4G and other standards of communication are unable to accommodate a large amount of data effectively. 5G networks are prominent to support the explicit communication requirements of healthcare functions in IoT. The launch of 5G in smart healthcare networks is therefore a boom for IoT devices that provides an enhancement in network performance and expend cellular coverage. This paper reviewed several aspects of 5G and IoT architectures. Also, this research work presents the future aspects of 5G-IoT based smart healthcare system architecture, which provides better healthcare for patients in the future.
