Background: Because of the health systems globalization, it is important to examine health systems organization in Africa, in terms of patient care, to highlight the failures and propose possible solutions. Objective: Modeling based on the Internet of Things (IoT) an Integrated Network for Monitoring Patient Data in West African Health Systems. Methodology: To achieve this, three steps have been followed. 1) Identification of the different characteristics of IoT-based health surveillance systems, WBAN systems and physiological parameters monitorable on a patient. 2) The modeling of the architecture of West African health systems in the form of a cloud of Technocentres. 3) Cross analysis between different IoT technologies, characteristics and functional requirements identified. All this is based on wireless medical sensor networks in Wireless Body Area Network (WBAN) systems. Result: This work has been used to model health systems in Africa as a remote monitoring network for patients. Conclusion: The implementation of this model of monitoring networks will be a tool for supporting large-scale decision-making for a health system in Africa. It will enable the West African health system to have an information database.

The low-power wide-area network (LPWAN) paradigm is gradually gaining market acceptance. In particular, three prominent LPWAN technologies are emerging at the moment: LoRaWAN™ and SigFox™, which operate on unlicensed frequency bands, and NB-IoT, operating on licensed frequency bands. This paper deals with LoRaWAN™, and has the aim of describing a particularly interesting feature provided by the latest LoRaWAN™ specification—often neglected in the literature—i.e., the roaming capability between different operators of LoRaWAN™ networks, across the same country or even different countries. Recalling that LoRaWAN™ devices do not have a subscriber identification module (SIM) like cellular network terminals, at a first glance the implementation of roaming in LoRaWAN™ networks could seem intricate. The contribution of this paper consists in explaining the principles behind the implementation of a global LoRaWAN network, with particular focus on how to cope with the lack of the SIM in the architecture and how to realize roaming.

Gathering Data

The Internet of Things (IoT) prompts can administered by gathering data from little sensor gadgets. As of late, stockpiling less detecting gadgets have been utilized to actualize IoT administrations.  They rely upon conveyed programming from a system server to work benefit capacities and IoT administrations are in view of gathered client data. In this way, it is critical to keep up trusted associations aid programming conveyance or information transmission. In the event that a system association is deceitful, stable information transmission can't be accomplished. Dishonest information associations cause numerous issues in IoT administrations. In this manner, this paper proposes a product refresh strategy in trusted association of IoT organizing. The technique utilizes Low Power Wide Area Network (LPWAN) as long-go IoT organizing innovation and utilizations a portable edge cloud to enhance registering effectiveness in an entrance arrange that comprises of IoT gadgets with lacking assets. In the strategy, the versatile edge cloud is coordinated into a door, and forms detecting information and remote programming updates of LPWAN. IoT gadgets can get programming capacities from the versatile edge cloud. The proposed strategy investigates measurable data about associations in a get to arrange and decides the LPWAN put stock in associations. At that point, programming updates can be performed over the confided in association. Utilizing trusted associations prompts an expanded bundle conveyance rate and decreased transmission vitality utilization. The strategy is contrasted with at present accessible frameworks through PC recreation and through computer simulation and this method’s efficiency is validated.

The Internet of Things (IoT) is an emerging paradigm that enables many beneficial and prospective application areas, such as smart metering, smart homes, smart industries, and smart city architectures, to name but a few. These application areas typically comprise end nodes and gateways that are often interconnected by low power wide area network (LPWAN) technologies, which provide low power consumption rates to elongate the battery lifetimes of end nodes, low IoT device development/purchasing costs, long transmission range, and increased scalability, albeit at low data rates. However, most LPWAN technologies are often confronted with a number of physical (PHY) layer challenges, including increased interference, spectral inefficiency, and/or low data rates for which cognitive radio (CR), being a predominantly PHY layer solution, suffices as a potential solution. Consequently, in this article, we survey the potentials of integrating CR in LPWAN for IoT-based applications. First, we present and discuss a detailed list of different state-of-the-art LPWAN technologies; we summarize the most recent LPWAN standardization bodies, alliances, and consortia while emphasizing their disposition towards the integration of CR in LPWAN. We then highlight the concept of CR in LPWAN via a PHY-layer front-end model and discuss the benefits of CR-LPWAN for IoT applications. A number of research challenges and future directions are also presented. This article aims to provide a unique and holistic overview of CR in LPWAN with the intention of emphasizing its potential benefits.

In the context of the rapid growth of various areas of the Internet of things, there is currently no unified approach to building networks based on low-power Wide-area Network (LPWAN) wireless networks, taking into account the general requirements for them as automated control systems (ACS). There are the following areas of use of the Internet of things: industry and production; transport and transportation; control of the technical condition of building structures, air quality, background noise and energy consumption; waste management; smart Parking and providing data on traffic jams; smart street lighting and use in everyday life. Networks based on LoRaWAN technology provide low-cost energy-efficient wireless communications for modern ACS in a variety of industries. It is cost-effective for designing hardware and software for telemetry and controlling, such as a system of control and monitoring engineering systems of buildings and facilities (SMES) and automated outdoor lighting control systems. The article presents a structural and functional analysis of approaches to the construction of hardware and software complex elements based on LoRаWAN, taking into account the specifics and logic of the SMES and ASUS. It also provides calculations of network bandwidth and capacity for a single LoRaWAN gateway in a different mode of operation of ACS. A parametric analysis of existing implementations was carried out to design the management server (SU), which is the main element of the LoRaWAN network. The results allowed to obtain seventeen indicators that determine the functionality of a network server (NS). Network server software development. Major structures and the mechanisms of interaction of its elements are determined during the process of designing the original implementation of NS software.
