Abstract

The body sensor network contains wearable and/or implantable biosensors and serves as an important front-end platform for Internet of Things in the healthcare domain. From the point of view of the national health information development strategy, this paper discusses the importance of the body sensor network technology and its applications in the development of health information. The current status and future trends of the body sensor network technology are reviewed from the perspective of communication technology, with emphasis on security and privacy mechanisms of sensitive health data.
