Privacy-Preserving Data Transmission protocol for Wireless Medical Sensor Data

Abstract

Wireless Sensor Networks (WSN) in recent years has become a leading area of interest and research. A Sensor is a device that responds and detects some type of input from both the physical and environmental conditions. Wireless devices have great impact on the medicinal region with an extensive variety of ability, not just enhancing the personal satisfaction of patients and specialist tolerant productivity, remote innovation empowers clinicians to monitor patients remotely and give them timely health information, updates and support-potentially extending the reach of health care by making it accessible anyplace, anytime. In the meantime, there is a developing worry about the doctor`s facilities` capacity to give powerful care amid calamity occasions. Thus, instruments that robotize quiet checking can possibly incredibly enhance proficiency and nature of medicinal services. In healing centers, medicinal information sensors which screen patients create an undeniably substantial volume of ongoing information. The transmission of this information through remote systems in a healing facility turns into an essential issue in light of the fact that the therapeutic data of an individual is very crucial and it must be kept private and secure. In this paper, we propose a pragmatic approach that guarantees secure data transmission. The primary commitment of this paper is safely conveying the patient information by actualizing Security Safeguarding Information Transmission convention and utilizing the Paillier and ElGamal cryptosystems to perform statistical analysis on the patient information without compromising the patient`s privacy. We enhance this protocol to reduce the overhead by implementing secure data aggregation method Keywords: privacy protection; paillier cryptosystem; patient data privacy.
