Hi As I am doing my PhD thesis on patient monitoring systems which are based on lower power radio like IEEE 802.15.4. I will just share a part of this to elaborate the scenario in context of patient monitoring systems.
In patient monitoring systems where life critical data requires limited delay, high throughput and energy efficient communication simultaneously. it is observed that wireless biomedical sensors generate a large number of small packets in a limited time period which poses challenges for the MAC layer, especially on channel access process. Therefore, for mentioned challenges TSCH proves to be expensive in terms of management and resources, however simple hybrid channel access mechanism of IEEE is more suitable. In the following , the traffic patterns analysis mechanism is developed to understand the requirements of the sensor nodes in patient monitoring systems.
