Game Theory Based Security in Wireless Body Area Network with Stackelberg Security Equilibrium

الملخص EN

Wireless Body Area Network (WBAN) is effectively used in healthcare to increase the value of the patient’s life and also the value of healthcare services.

The biosensor based approach in medical care system makes it difficult to respond to the patients with minimal response time.

The medical care unit does not deploy the accessing of ubiquitous broadband connections full time and hence the level of security will not be high always.

The security issue also arises in monitoring the user body function records.

Most of the systems on the Wireless Body Area Network are not effective in facing the security deployment issues.

To access the patient’s information with higher security on WBAN, Game Theory with Stackelberg Security Equilibrium (GTSSE) is proposed in this paper.

GTSSE mechanism takes all the players into account.

The patients are monitored by placing the power position authority initially.

The position authority in GTSSE is the organizer and all the other players react to the organizer decision.

Based on our proposed approach, experiment has been conducted on factors such as security ratio based on patient’s health information, system flexibility level, energy consumption rate, and information loss rate.

Stackelberg Security considerably improves the strength of solution with higher security.
