Abstract: Internet of things (IoT) is the major application of wireless sensor networks (WSNs) with different objects that can be connected over the internet. In tele-robotic surgery, M2M communication between medical devices provides visual assistance and gives feedback on the progress of operation. The study presents energy efficient routing protocols (EERP) to enhance energy efficiency and prolong sensor node life using LEACH protocol. To make the communication reliable and robust, research shows the design of the medical sensor node network with LEACH protocol. After designing a network, a denial of service or man-in-middle attack is performed to analyse its impact on network performance. Based on the experimental results, the protocol can significantly extend the life of the WSN and improves energy efficiency. This makes the system more robust and reliable in the emerging area of the medical science.

Keywords: machine to machine communication; M2M; internet of things; IoT; security.
