This research explores the critical role that data signal processing (DSP) plays in the medical field and how it might transform treatment options, diagnostics, and the standard of care in general. An overview of the growing amount of healthcare data gathered from several sources, such as wearable technology, digital medical records, medical imaging, and continuous patient monitoring devices, is given in the first part. It draws attention to the difficulties presented by the sheer volume, velocity, and diversity of data related to health, which need complex processing techniques to obtain useful insights. Moreover, DSP is essential to the creation of state-of-the-art medical devices, including wearable and implantable health monitoring ones. DSP makes a major contribution to personalized medicine in clinical settings by improving medication techniques. The findings emphasize how crucial DSP is for obtaining relevant patient information from complex biological signals. It looks at how signal processing methods—from simple methods to sophisticated machine learning algorithms—are used to improve signal quality, reduce noise, and reveal patterns in medical data. This study highlights the critical role that DSP plays in the medical industry, especially when it comes to managing digital health records, Internet of Things (IoT) devices, health-related data, prescription methods, and improving healthcare as a whole.</p> Junid Ahmed Ansari Ibrahim Usman ##submission.copyrightStatement## http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0 2024-04-26 2024-04-26 4 2 1 11 A Comprehensive Review of 5G Technology and Beyond http://ijcrt.smiu.edu.pk/ijcrt/index.php/smiu/article/view/188 <p class="Default" style="text-align: justify; text-justify: inter-ideograph;"><span style="font-size: 10.0pt;">The advent of 5G technology marks a transformative phase in wireless communication, promising unprecedented advancements in data speed, low latency, and connectivity.

These devices named as sensors are responsible for generating real world data based on the physical properties they measure. For example, temperature sensor produced temperature readings. Sensor collects data continuously or periodically, providing a stream of information that reflects changes in environment or conditions. Relating to the IoT, data from sensors transmitted to the central system usually through wireless communication protocols. The collected data can be utilized for various purposes such as monitoring, analysis and decision making or triggering actions. This study provides a review of IoT and industrial IoT (IIoT). Further, this paper highlights Applications, challenges and tools in detail.</p> Dua Noor Abdul Basit Sagheer Mirani ##submission.copyrightStatement## http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0 2024-04-26 2024-04-26 4 2 24 35 Internet of Medical Things (IoMT) for Remote Healthcare Monitoring Using Wearable Sensors http://ijcrt.smiu.edu.pk/ijcrt/index.php/smiu/article/view/191 <p>In the healthcare industry, the most recent innovations and developments in communication and informational technique play a critical role. These developments paved the mode for the IoMT (Internet of Medical Things), which allows for persistent, distant, and genuine patient monitoring. The capacity, connectivity protocols, big data and volume of data, adaptability, durability, data processing, data acquisition system, data handling, and analytics accessibility, economic viability, privacy and security, and power efficiency are all problems that IoMT architectures confront. The basic aim of his research is to employ remote health monitoring (RHM) and IoMT to identify health monitor easy approach to improve medical residing conditions. Moreover, the use of IoMT and Medical knowledge RHM to strengthen the protection, diagnosis, prognosis, and therapeutic capacities of the Internet of medical things is addressed. The IoMT (Internet of Medical Things) involves a network of health care devices and individuals that exchange medical data via wireless communications. With the rising expansion of the population and the use of advanced technology, medical expenses and medical cost has significantly increased. The coupling of IoMT with medical healthcare has the potential to increase people's lives, deliver effective medical therapy, and establish pocket-friendly approaches. This study discusses the current state of IoT in the medical business, as well as plans for development and innovation strategies and implementations. The adoption of IoT in the medical sector has evolved worldwide, but it still encounters numerous architectural and technological hurdles. To find a solution to the mentioned problems, current research illustrates a basic IoMT design that comprises 3 foundational pillars: data gathering, connection gateways, and servers/cloud. Ultimately, this article examined the possibilities and potential of IoMT in practice, as well as the associated remarkable research concern.&nbsp;</p> S M Nazmuz Sakib ##submission.copyrightStatement## http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0 2024-04-26 2024-04-26 4 2 36 50 Relating different Artificial Intelligence approaches for Animals disease outbreak detection http://ijcrt.smiu.edu.pk/ijcrt/index.php/smiu/article/view/192 <p>The past two years have witnessed a worrying surge in animal disease outbreaks, with African swine fever, foot-and-mouth disease, and bird flu wreaking havoc on animal populations and human livelihoods. Millions of animals have succumbed to these highly contagious diseases, causing severe economic losses, disrupting livestock industries, and threatening global food security. Data reveals the alarming occurrence, distribution, and impact of these outbreaks, while highlighting the challenges in controlling them and the potential public health risks. Innovative approaches like AI-powered disease models and international cooperation are crucial to tackle this crisis and mitigate future threats.
