Abstract: This paper discusses a multi-sensor network based on the IoT-WBAN architecture, designed and developed using a three-tier approach to simplify the configuration and networking of sensor nodes. The proposed framework has been developed to take into account various real-time criteria, such as affordable, unobtrusive, non-invasive monitoring at anytime and anywhere. The device is made up of multiple wireless sensor nodes, each recording the various physiological parameters of the patient. At the hub/aggregating unit at Tier 1, the separate data obtained are aggregated and then sent to the base station (Tier 2) for remote transmission (Tier 3). The base station functions as an intermediary point for the transmission of long-range data over the internet or cell network. In order to address the current constraints, numerous design challenges have been considered.
