Implementation of IoT and UAV Based WBAN for healthcare applications

Abstract

Recently, Wireless Body Area Networks (WBAN) have been increasingly significant in healthcare applications. It is derived from the wireless sensor network with biomedical sensors. The Internet of Things (IoT) has a huge impact on how medical data is received and transmitted to the right systems in healthcare applications. Security, fastest delivery, and energy consumption are major concerns in wireless body area networks. This research work focuses on the rapid data transmission between the patient and doctor using Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAV). There are five sensors that are analyzed as Heart rate monitoring sensor, Temperature sensor, Human motion sensor, Oximeter sensor, and Blood pressure sensor. For the fastest delivery, the sensed medical data was delivered utilizing unmanned aerial vehicles. This helps the patients in critical/emergencies to communicate the medical information to the doctor safely and securely. The experimental result examines various sensors attached to the Arduino IDE. The obtained results will be transmitted to the patients using unmanned aerial vehicles. These techniques help to improve the fastest communication for emergency condition patients.
