摘要：AbstractEvent-based data transfer through Wireless Body Sensor Networks (WBSN) for monitoring the health of the elderly has so far not been successfully implemented due to limitations arising forms unreliable data, end-to-end delay during data transmission and the high energy consumption by sensors. This paper aims to improve reliability and latency and to reduce energy consumption by sensors during data transmission in WSBN. The proposed system consists of an Enhanced Reliability, Energy-Efficient and Latency (EREEAL) algorithm to reduce data losses and end-to-end delay as well as improve the transmission reliability in WBSN by sending the sensor data during different time slots using Time Division Multiple Access (TDMA) analysis and by minimizing redundant sensitive data. The result shows that the new algorithm improves reliability to 98% over the data bits generated within 8 ∼ 12 min and reduces latency to 0.635 compared to 0.875 ms in the ‘state of the art’ system. Furthermore, the reduction in latency leads to lower power consumption by sensors, reduced to 315.638*10 3JS/bits during patient data transmission using a tele-monitoring process. The proposed system concentrates on reducing interference with data between sensors and focuses on minimizing data loss during transmission. Thus, this study provides an acceptable range of reliability with reduced delay and lower power consumption due to which doctors at a remote site can obtain reliable data value for smooth monitoring.
