Description
Summary:Wireless networks have gained significant attention and importance in healthcare as various medical devices such as mobile devices, sensors, and remote monitoring equipment must be connected to communication networks. In order to provide advanced medical treatments to patients, high-performance technologies such as the emerging fifth generation/sixth generation (5G/6G) are required for transferring data to and from medical devices and in addition to their major components developed with improved optimization methods which are substantially needed and embedded in them. Providing intelligent system design is a challenging task in medical applications, as it affects the whole behaviors of medical devices. A critical review of the medical devices and the various optimization methods employed are presented in this paper, to pave the way for designers to develop an apparatus that is applicable in the healthcare industry under 5G technology and future 6G wireless networks.
