IPv6-Based Architecture of Community Medical Internet of Things

Abstract

The effective integration of Community Medical Internet of Things (CMIoT) and the core technology IPv6 about the next generation of Internet will create a new pattern for the medical field. However, as a heterogeneous network system, the interconnection of different CMIoT components is the primary problem, which needs to be solved. Traditional protocol conversion gateway in the Internet of Things only implements the packet format conversion. When the network environment changes, it is difficult to effectively implement the data path. We propose a CMIoT architecture with the assist of the communication auxiliary gateway, and design the simplified protocol message format under the premise of satisfying the functional requirements. At the same time, the CMIoT architecture model is built based on the Ptolemy II modeling environment and implemented in a community, and it is proved that the interconnection between the IPv6 network and the physical network can be realized more effectively.
