Abstract

The current internet architecture cannot manage the massive data volumes produced by the smart IoT-based healthcare systems. Very recently, the idea of Software-Defined Networking (SDN) has surfaced to resolve the issues related to networking. The incorporation of SDN technology in IoT-based healthcare systems can possibly solve the existing quality of service and data management issues. Furthermore, the IoT-based healthcare system can attain enhanced Quality of Service (QoS) through the employment of such schemes that use shortest-path routing algorithms and offer higher bandwidth to lesser delay paths as per the QoS requirements. In this study, the SDN technology is integrated with IoT-based healthcare systems, and the delay is reduced for delay-sensitive applications by using the Bellman-Ford algorithm. The proposed scheme is deployed using the POX controller and can effectively handle the existing QoS issues in the IoT healthcare systems. The simulation results of the proposed scheme show a clear drop in delay values in comparison to the benchmark scheme.
