Performance Assessment of IoMT Services and Protocols: Healthcare Transformation

The Internet of Medical Things (IoMT) is combination of healthcare devices and its applications where it is connected. The IoMT is useful for researchers, patients, and medical advisers, and it is also useful for assisting the patients and tracking their details from rural area. Medical resources and health services are interconnected by digital healthcare system and researchers are contributing it. The data transfer of patient should be accurate for best healthcare service using Internet of Things. There are three layers in architecture of the protocol system: 1. data receiving; 2. “protocols”; and 3. data collected by sensor “sensing layer”. Many medical sensors like temperature, ECG, heartbeat, pressure measurement, and glucose sensor can be seen in sensing layer. Sensors measure the subject data and received data is transferred to doctor through layer known as server layer. Communication protocols are in the server layer, which helps in authorizing the data between devices and IoT in many fields. The need for the protocols is very important such as CoAP and MQTT, which is more compatible. The information that is transferred to the doctor will be sent to sensing layer which will be processed and stored. The IoT protocol made by researcher should be high efficient, energy consumption, suitable for data transfer like electronic health, and often operate on batteries, and the energy can be saved by using suitable protocol.
