      Preface

      In this digital era, the towering intellectual abilities demonstrated by machines, known as artificial intelligence (AI), continue to advance innovations with the goal of improving the world. Artificial intelligence broadens horizons in the field of science, which will help change essential things and modulate eternal facts. This advancement in AI miraculously continues to retain an inspired vision in regards to emerging technologies. Hence, this book provides readers with the tools to fill in the AI-related knowledge gaps yet to be conquered through the use of smart intelligent systems for industrial applications.

      Today, due to our subjugation to technology, there is much more to reckon within our quest for knowledge. Therefore, the knowledge included in the chapters of this book, which covers AI topics related to smart homes, smart cities, and smart towns, the industrial Internet of things, and smart earth and smart metering, will be helpful when confronting the most recent technological challenges in a timely manner.

      In order to help the reader thrive in an AI world, the book covers a broad range of topics about AI from a multidisciplinary point of view, starting with its history and continuing on to theories about artificial vs. human intelligence, concepts and regulations concerning AI, human–machine distribution of power and control, delegation of decisions, the social and economic impact of AI, etc. The prominent role that AI plays in society by connecting people through technologies is highlighted in this book. It also covers key aspects of various AI applications in electrical systems in order to enable growth in electrical engineering. The impact that AI has on social and economic factors is also examined from various perspectives. Moreover, many intriguing aspects of AI techniques in different domains are covered such as e-learning, healthcare, smart grid, virtual assistance, etc. The contents of this book will be useful for students, teachers, and researchers who would like to know more about AI, which is a new technology that broadens the boundaries of learning in this contemporary world. Reading this book will be like taking a voyage through the land of AI.

      Our sincere gratitude goes to all those who contributed to the valuable chapters of this book. Also, thanks go to the editorial director and the production editor at Scrivener Publishing, whose ardent support made the completion of this book possible.

       Abstract

Today, the introduction of communication technology has turned out an immense influence on healthcare. Communication technology enables real-time monitoring of a patient remotely to detect the health metrics and disease symptoms at an affordable price. Community-level health monitoring is also possible through these communication technologies, which saves time and enables us to serve more patients. Artificial Intelligence (AI)–based communication ensures reliable communication, which is a vital factor in the healthcare industry. AI with the Internet of Things (IoT) in healthcare makes self-diagnosing capability via wireless body area networks (WBANs), which uses wearable sensing devices. The wearable WBAN is a challenging one because it involves radiation of EM waves on the human body. mHealth is another technology that enables one to reach healthcare services anywhere at any time through the mobile application using specialized communication protocols. Augmented and virtual reality allows efficient diagnosis and does surgery using real-time digital visual aids with more precision. All those technologies require specialized wireless communication. Thus, this chapter intended to cover challenges, methodology, communication protocols, and applications of IoT-based healthcare, mHealth healthcare, body area networks, and augmented and virtual reality.

1.1 Introduction: Overview of Communication Technology and Services for Healthcare

      In recent days, communication technologies play a vital role in upcoming healthcare solutions. The drastic improvement in communication technologies, especially in the areas of wireless communication, offer anytime-anywhere connectivity to support advanced services for healthcare.

In our globe, the population is one of the main aspects to develop the most modernized technologies to reach the information as much as simple and easier to other people; most of the technologies have achieved its higher level to this advanced method by adopting those features. Uncertainly, some sectors are not utilizing the technology properly even though it helps mankind; the medical healthcare system is one of those. In the more regions of the world, the population is in denser growth and its impossible for a doctor or a specialized one to take care of every person they are examining and vice versa for patients also not able to reach doctors at a certain time [1], in these kinds of situations, eHealth is used to take care of these responsibilities. Together with the development of the internet, eHealth is one of the widely accepted healthcare services. It encompasses the applications of communication technologies for the support of healthcare activities. Telemedicine, telecare, clinical information networks, and analysis of heterogeneous data sources are the various branches of eHealth [2]. eHealthcare system design is illustrated in
