چکیده

This paper considers the application of Wireless Sensor Networks in healthcare monitoring systems. The KPS protocol with and without looping in Wireless Sensor Networks is also discussed. The KPS protocol is used for efficient delivery of messages of interest in the form of packets generated from different source nodes to multiple sink nodes within different geographic target regions. In the KPS protocol, forwarding potential is used along with the concept of Fermat point. This paper will focus on the lifetime of a Wireless Sensor Networks in healthcare monitoring systems. The lifetime of the network is considered in terms of the number of rounds, wherein each round is described by the complete transmission of the packet from the source node to the multiple sink nodes. Keywords—Wireless Sensor Networks; Fermat Point; Lifetime of Wireless Sensor Network; Healthcare Monitoring Systems; Grid deployment; KPS Protocol.
