Category : Technology & Engineering
Languages : en
Pages : 207
Book Description
This book introduces wireless personal communications from the point of view of wireless communication system researchers. Existing sources on wireless communications put more emphasis on simulation and fundamental principles of how to build a study model. In this volume, the aim is to pass on to readers as much knowledge as is essential for completing model building of wireless communications, focusing on wireless personal area networks (WPANs). This book is the first of its kind that gives step-by-step details on how to build the WPANs simulation model. It is most helpful for readers to get a clear picture of the whole wireless simulation model by being presented with many study models. The book is also the first treatise on wireless communication that gives a comprehensive introduction to data-length complexity and the computational complexity of the processed data and the error control schemes. This volume is useful for all academic and technical staff in the fields of telecommunications and wireless communications, as it presents many scenarios for enhancing techniques for weak error control performance and other scenarios for complexity reduction of the wireless data and image transmission. Many examples are given to help readers to understand the material covered in the book. Additional resources such as the MATLAB codes for some of the examples also are presented.

Intelligent Data Security Solutions for e-Health Applications
Author: Amit Kumar Singh
Publisher: Academic Press
ISBN: 012819538X
Category : Computers
Languages : en
Pages : 342
Book Description
E-health applications such as tele-medicine, tele-radiology, tele-ophthalmology, and tele-diagnosis are very promising and have immense potential to improve global healthcare. They can improve access, equity, and quality through the connection of healthcare facilities and healthcare professionals, diminishing geographical and physical barriers. One critical issue, however, is related to the security of data transmission and access to the technologies of medical information. Currently, medical-related identity theft costs billions of dollars each year and altered medical information can put a person’s health at risk through misdiagnosis, delayed treatment or incorrect prescriptions. Yet, the use of hand-held devices for storing, accessing, and transmitting medical information is outpacing the privacy and security protections on those devices. Researchers are starting to develop some imperceptible marks to ensure the tamper-proofing, cost effective, and guaranteed originality of the medical records. However, the robustness, security and efficient image archiving and retrieval of medical data information against these cyberattacks is a challenging area for researchers in the field of e-health applications. Intelligent Data Security Solutions for e-Health Applications focuses on cutting-edge academic and industry-related research in this field, with particular emphasis on interdisciplinary approaches and novel techniques to provide security solutions for smart applications. The book provides an overview of cutting-edge security techniques and ideas to help graduate students, researchers, as well as IT professionals who want to understand the opportunities and challenges of using emerging techniques and algorithms for designing and developing more secure systems and methods for e-health applications. Investigates new security and privacy requirements related to eHealth technologies and large sets of applications Reviews how the abundance of digital information on system behavior is now being captured, processed, and used to improve and strengthen security and privacy Provides an overview of innovative security techniques which are being developed to ensure the guaranteed authenticity of transmitted, shared or stored data/information
