Abstract The Internet of Wearable Things (IoWT) or Wearable Internet of Things (WIoT) is a new paradigm that combines IoT and wearable technology. Advances in IoT technology have enabled the miniaturization of sensors embedded in wearable devices and the ability to communicate data and access real-time information over low-power mobile networks. IoWT devices are highly interdependent with mobile devices. However, due to their limited processing power and bandwidth, IoWT devices are vulnerable to cyberattacks due to their low level of security. Threat modeling and frameworks for analyzing cyber threats against existing IoT or low-power protocols have… More >

Abstract Nowadays, smart wearable devices are used widely in the Social Internet of Things (IoT), which record human physiological data in real time. To protect the data privacy of smart devices, researchers pay more attention to federated learning. Although the data leakage problem is somewhat solved, a new challenge has emerged. Asynchronous federated learning shortens the convergence time, while it has time delay and data heterogeneity problems. Both of the two problems harm the accuracy. To overcome these issues, we propose an asynchronous federated learning scheme based on double compensation to solve the problem of time… More >

Abstract The antenna plays an essential role in the medical industry. The short-range 5^th Generation (5G) communication can be used for seamless transmission, reception, patient monitoring, sensing and measuring various processes at high speeds. A passive Ultra Wide Band (UWB) antenna, used as a sensor in the measurement of Prothrombin Time (PT) i.e., blood clot is being proposed. The investigated micro-strip patch UWB antenna operating in the frequency range of 3.1 to 10.6 GHz consists of a circular patch with a diamond-shaped slot made of jeans substrate material with good sensing properties is accomplished by adjusting the… More >

Abstract A system for classifying four basic table tennis strokes using wearable devices and deep learning networks is proposed in this study. The wearable device consisted of a six-axis sensor, Raspberry Pi 3, and a power bank. Multiple kernel sizes were used in convolutional neural network (CNN) to evaluate their performance for extracting features. Moreover, a multiscale CNN with two kernel sizes was used to perform feature fusion at different scales in a concatenated manner. The CNN achieved recognition of the four table tennis strokes. Experimental data were obtained from 20 research participants who wore sensors More >

Abstract Recent research on activity recognition in wearable devices has identified a key challenge: k-nearest neighbors (k-NN) algorithms have a high operational time complexity. Thus, these algorithms are difficult to utilize in embedded wearable devices. Herein, we propose a method for reducing this complexity. We apply a clustering algorithm for learning data and assign labels to each cluster according to the maximum likelihood. Experimental results show that the proposed method achieves effective operational levels for implementation in embedded devices; however, the accuracy is slightly lower than that of a traditional k-NN algorithm. Additionally, our method provides More >

Abstract Wearable devices are becoming more popular in our daily life. They are usually used to monitor health status, track fitness data, or even do medical tests, etc. Since the wearable devices can obtain a lot of personal data, their security issues are very important. Motivated by the consideration that the current pairing mechanisms of Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) are commonly impractical or insecure for many BLE based wearable devices nowadays, we design and implement a security framework in order to protect the communication between these devices. The security framework is a supplement to the Bluetooth… More >
