Abstract

Wireless sensor networks are networks of large numbers of sensor nodes that have sensing, communication, and processing capabilities. Recently wireless sensor network (WSN) has been widely used in quite numerous application areas. In the various application fields of WSN, the most important technology we have to focus on in health application is the transmission reliability of the health data in multi-hop communication. The loss of short term health signal can be fatal life threatening. In this paper, our research is focused on the finding of optimized routing protocol for the health related mixed data of wave-like health signals, such as ECG, PPG and linear health signal, such as body temperature and blood pressure. The reliable minimum cost routing protocol developed in our experiment shows very low wireless data packet, and shows high reliable mixed signal transmission in multi-hop communication.
