Abstract
Most developing countries are face to a deficit of doctors and qualified medical staff. This situation poses a real problem for population, especially pregnant women who are at a much greater risk. The use of biosensors can be an alternative solution to overcome these deficiencies. This article presents a new protocol called T4PW (TSCH For Pregnant Woman). T4PW uses the Wireless Body Area Networks (WBANs) and is based on 802.15.4e TSCH standard. Our new protocol aims to provide a real-time remote monitoring to pregnant woman during the pregnancy period and at childbirth. The woman health state is determined from the values measured by the biosensors. Several slotframe templates are proposed according to the health status and the 802.15.4e default timeslot length is reduced.
