Abstract

The Internet of Healthcare Things (IoHT) demands massive and smart connectivity, huge bandwidth, lower latency with ultra-high data rate and better quality of healthcare experience. Unlike the 5G wireless network, the upcoming 6G communication system is expected to provide Intelligent IoHT (IIoHT) services everywhere at any time to improve the quality of life of the human being. In this paper, we present the framework of 6G cellular networks, its aggregation with multidimensional communication techniques such as optical wireless communication network, cell-free communication system, backhaul network, and quantum communication, as well as distributed security paradigm in the context of IIoHT. Such low latency and ultra-high-speed communication network will provide a new paradigm for connecting homes to hospitals, healthcare people, medical devices, hospital infrastructure, etc. Also, the requirements of 6G wireless networking, other key techniques, challenges and research direction of deploying IIoHT are outlined in the article.
