RESUMO
The sensors used in the Internet of Medical Things (IoMT) network run on batteries and need to be replaced, replenished or should use energy harvesting for continuous power needs. Additionally, there are mechanisms for better utilization of battery power for network longevity. IoMT networks pose a unique challenge with respect to sensor power replenishment as the sensors could be embedded inside the subject. A possible solution could be to reduce the amount of sensor data transmission and recreate the signal at the receiving end. This article builds upon previous physiological monitoring studies by applying new decision tree-based regression models to calculate the accuracy of reproducing data from two sets of physiological signals transmitted over cellular networks. These regression analyses are then executed over three different iteration varieties to assess the effect that the number of decision trees has on the efficiency of the regression model in question. The results indicate much lower errors as compared to other approaches indicating significant saving on the battery power and improvement in network longevity.
