摘要

The ever-increasing advancement in communication technologies of modern smart objects brings with it a newera of application development for Internet of Things (IoT)-based networks. In particular, owing to the contactless-ness nature and efficiency of the data retrieval of mobile smart objects, such as wearable equipment or tailored bio-sensors, several innovative types of healthcare systems with body sensor networks (BSN) have been proposed. In this paper, we introduce a secure IoT-based healthcare system, which operates through the BSN architecture. To simultaneously achieve system efficiency and robustness of transmission within public IoT-based communication networks, we utilize robust crypto-primitives to construct two communication mechanisms for ensuring transmission confidentiality and providing entity authentication among smart objects, the local processing unit and the backend BSN server. Moreover, we realize the implementation of the proposed healthcare system with the Raspberry PI platform to demonstrate the practicability and feasibility of the presented mechanisms.
