IMPACT OF COST FUNCTION ON MINIMIZING THE IMPACT OF PATH LOSS IN INTERNET OF MEDICAL THINGS

Abstract

Internet of Medical Things is the field dealing with human health monitoring on regular basis. That makes it a well worthy field. Sensors are used to physiological monitor the vital signs. The sensors are small in size and in order to let them work continuously for larger span of time they must enable to work efficiently. In Internet of Medical Things energy efficiency is considered a critical factor because of wireless communication networks. Path loss reduces the signal strength so minimizing path loss plays an important role in terms of power consumption in IoMT. This papers enhances using of Cost Function to efficiently mitigate path loss effects on wireless communication. Using Cost Function enables load balancing in the IoMT routing system so that the transmission becomes efficient and the protocol may have longer span of time.
