Abstract

The advancement in telemedicine has been helpful in the development of smart healthcare in urban and rural areas. In India, however, this solution often falls short of connecting the remote villages with modern healthcare due to the difficulty in accessibility. In a developing country like India, consisting of geographically remote settlements, it is not feasible to provide infrastructure-based health support to all. To conquer this difficulty, an alternative solution is required in which the existing network infrastructure is not essential for the communication purposes. The main objective of this proposal is to provide an alternative approach for the transmission of health care related messages. It is also important to minimize the cost of this type of healthcare services by avoiding the establishment of communication network across the country. Here, we propose the framework of an IoT-based system to work as an aid for quicker diagnosis and health support for the remote villagers. We have used vehicular ad hoc network for cost-effective and fast data transportation, besides other advantages.
