Abstract

Use of electronic devices has increased many times in our daily life. It is used for many purposes including healthcare. Small sensor devices on patients’ body that reads patients’ physiological data and send those data to a remote server. Doctors and other healthcare professionals can view this data sitting at their home. Thus remote health monitoring is possible known as Wireless Body Area Networks (WBAN). Routing and providing seamless connectivity is a big challenge and a topic of research. In this work, a priority based routing protocol designed for WBAN has been developed where data has been classified into normal and emergency data. This routing protocol is especially applicable for COVID and diabetic patients. Normal data will be processed in cloud server but emergency data will be processed locally. Results obtained prove that our protocol is faster and also gives minimum delay.
