Employing light fidelity technology in health monitoring system

Abstract

Light Fidelity (Li-Fi) is an emerging technology that has been in transferring data packets in Internet of Things (IoT) applications. During the COVID-19 pandemic, healthcare institutes try to manage the rapid increase of patients’ numbers. The healthcare team may not have the ability to monitor patients’ stats around the clock with the conventional techniques. In this paper, a healthcare monitoring framework to exchange health data between biosensors and terminals employing Li-Fi technology is proposed. It exploits Li-Fi to transmit data towards a terminal then to a cloud platform. It is intended for use in highly dense healthcare institutes where the number of patients is high. Exploiting Li-Fi to establish connection to cut high cost of other transmission technologies including Wi-Fi and provides less complexity and shorter latency. We evaluate the framework in a real-life environment using biosensors and Li-Fi communication model (for network infrastructure), these two components are connected to a computing terminal to help health staff monitor patients. The computing terminal is connected to a cloud platform to provide remote monitoring and computing resilience. The framework shows superior performance in real-world scenarios compared to Wi-Fi. A comprehensive analysis has been conducted to show the differences between Li-Fi and Wi-Fi.

A new framework to enhance healthcare monitoring using patient-centric predictive analysis

“…This framework first works with patient-centric applications accessed through a logical or physical approach. If the type of treatment procedure is chosen as a logical approach, this research study contributes the PatientE framework to function with AI and IoT modules [21], [22]. The logical approach continues with login credentials based on type of case for consultation procedure, depends on the user information as text or voice data, according to these data database from the healthcare centers decides the admission process, whether required or not [23].…”

The Nature of the Composition of the Fish Community in One of the Drains of Al-Alam District – Salah Al-Din – Iraq

“…3.1.1. Water Temperature Figure (2) shows the monthly changes in water temperature (Celsius). The highest water temperature was recorded during October, when it reached 21 and 24 for the first and second stations, respectively, while the lowest temperature was during January, when it reached 9 and 8 Celsius, respectively.…”

“…Darkness was significantly associated with salinity 0.86 at the 0.05 level, as well as a negative correlation with the total alkalinity 0.88 -at the 0.01 level, salinity was negatively correlated 0.73 -with the total alkalinity at the 0.05 level, and salinity was negatively correlated 0.74 -with the chemical oxygen requirement at a significant level 0.05. Table (2) shows the correlation values between the environmental factors in the second station. It was observed that there was a significant negative correlation of 0.77 -with dissolved oxygen and a significant positive correlation with the total alkalinity at the level of 0.05 and a significant negative correlation of 0.93 -between the transparency and the total solids at the level of 0.01 and the pH was associated with a significant positive correlation with the turbidity and a negative correlation with the alkalinity Total at 0.05 level, dissolved oxygen was negatively correlated 0.84 -with total alkaline at 0.05 level.…”

“…The effects of drain related to health and the environment include the spread and reproduction of mosquitoes and the presence of disease vectors such as snails that transmit schistosomiasis. The most important effects of sewage water on aquatic life, include chemical effects (deteriorating quality of water that affects fish migration and may cause their death), the effects of pesticides (affect fish by causing changes In temperament and increase sensitivity), permeable effects (affects fish, the increase in salt concentrations in water affects the permeable balance of aquatic organisms, sediment effects (has multiple effects on fish and aquatic organisms, interference effects IOP Publishing doi:10.1088/1755-1315/1262/7/072038 2 [2]. The estimated total lengths of trocars in Iraq are 91426 km And for all its main, subsidiary, secondary, aggregate, field, valleys, and bays, of which 8707 km are in Salah al-Din Governorate, where it accounts for 9.5% of the total sewage lengths in Iraq [3] Sewage is considered one of the most serious problems for public health and its disposal in many countries is done by Through its discharge without treatment to water bodies such as rivers, seas, and lakes, as it is, this water is contaminated with organic substances and chemicals (such as soap, industrial detergents and other liquid and solid waste) and some types of harmful bacteria and microbes in addition to toxic heavy metals and hydrocarbon compounds, and this leads to serious damage such as Reducing the percentage of oxygen in the water and may lead to the mass death of fish and aquatic organisms and the complete rotting of the water [4].…”
