Modelling of IoT-WSN Enabled ECG Monitoring System for Patient Queue Updation

Abstract

The advancement of communication technologies has led to the interconnection of different sensors using the Internet of Things (IoT) and Wireless Sensor Network (WSN). WSN for healthcare applications has expanded exponentially due to evolving advantages such as low power requirement of sensors, transmission accuracy, and cost-efficiency. For heart attack patients, the future lies in ECG monitoring in which wearable sensors can be used to acquire patient information. In this paper, an attempt has been made to develop a novel IoT-enabled WSN to record patient information for detection of heart attack and to update queue of patients to ensure prioritized medical attention to critical patients. In the WSN, the Rayleigh Fading channel has been used to transmit data that can be accessed using the cloud repository by the medical staff remotely. The distance from the patient to the medical staff is calculated using Euclidean distance. Further, SNR in comparison to throughput and BER has been computed. The higher SNR indicates the maximum information transfer from patient to hospital staff. The proposed system uses the Grasshopper Optimization and CBNN based disease classification system and bubble sort algorithm has been used for updating patient queue. The proposed GHOA and CBNN has shown improved accuracy of 2.14% over existing techniques like CNN which has accuracy around 82% for R-R feature selection of ECG signals as compared to 82.72% shown by GHOA-CBNN.
