Abstract

Recently, the architecture of internet of things (IoT) has been applied towards gathering physical, biological, and dynamic signs of the patients within consumer-oriented electronic-health or health services. In these healthcare systems, various therapeutic sensors are placed on patients to monitor vital signs. However, the process of collecting data in IoT-enabled wireless sensor networks (WSNs) often faces congestion issues, resulting in packet loss, reduced reliability, and decreased throughput. To tackle this challenge, this proposed paper recommends a distributed congestion control algorithm tailored specifically representing IoT-enabled WSNs used in healthcare contexts. The suggested approach improves congestion by employing a priority-based data routing strategy and introduces the precedence queue- based scheduling method to improve reliability. Then the effectiveness of this congestion control process is analyzed statistically, and its performance is verified across extensive simulations and real-life experiments. This solution shows potential for applications like early warning systems for identifying peculiar heart rates, blood pressure, electromyography (EMG), and electrocardiogram (ECG) in hospital or home care settings, thus advancing the current diagnosis capabilities.
