It is expected that almost every day electronic
devices will be connected to the existing internet infrastructure in the
context of Internet of Things (IoT). These devices will enable to sense and
actuate the physical world. It is foreseen that miniaturized e-health devices
will enable monitoring vital health of patients. There exist some studies on
networking these e-health devices within the Internet. In this realm, several
network protocols are being standardized. 6LoWPAN of IETF is one of these
efforts where some set of protocols can be stacked over IEEE 802.15.4 radio. However,
it is not clear that which ideal protocol stack for transmission of health data
can be adopted well. The novelty of this work is that we studied determination
of ideal protocol stack for transmitting health data over 6LoWPAN IoT networks.
So then, we carried extensive simulations over Cooja simulator. The compelling
results are presented in this work. The results show that 6LoWPAN IoT health
networks can be used to serve vital health data of patients.
