Predictive Diagnosis and Wireless Technologies for Rural Healthcare

Abstract: As the latest technologies like Internet of Things and Machine Learning are coming up, people are finding their applications in solving real life problems, like rural healthcare. The lack of human skill for medical diagnosis in rural areas is overcome by intelligent systems which do the job of analysing and diagnosing patients. Big Data Analysis is the field that provides excellent solutions to these problems. The transmission of data is enabled through the recently coming up wireless technologies like Zigbee and LoRa. This paper discusses these concepts and how they individually relate to solving the problem of rural healthcare. Finally, a solution is proposed which involves an intelligent system that addresses and helps overcome the health related issues faced by people living in rural areas.

Keywords: Zigbee, LoRa, Internet of Things, Big Data Analysis.
