Abstract

In order to explore the data fusion algorithm in medical Internet of things, the monitoring of medical data in the Internet of things is discussed and studied focusing on data fusion and related routing technology. According to the particularity of the data in the medical Internet of things, a data fusion cluster-tree construction algorithm based on event-driven (DFCTA) is proposed. The fusion delay problem in the network is analyzed, and the minimum fusion delay method is proposed by calculation of the fusion waiting time of the nodes. Finally, the intelligent health management data fusion system in the medical Internet of things is designed. Aiming at the characteristics of multilevel integration of multisource heterogeneous data fusion for intelligent health management, the data fusion architecture of fusion tree composed of fusion nodes is proposed. The experiment shows that the DFCTA algorithm has good fusion performance. Based on the above findings, it is concluded that the algorithm is a fast and reliable method, which has important practical significance.
