Abstract

This study proposes a Q-learning algorithm with Adagrad ALR optimizer for channel allocation in Wireless Body Area Networks (WBANs) for IoT healthcare applications. The approach dynamically optimizes channel allocation considering congestion, link quality, and node power, improving network performance, energy efficiency, and battery life. Simulations showed a 17% enhancement in energy efficiency compared to conventional Q-learning, PEH quality-of-service, and clustering algorithms, demonstrating the method's effectiveness for reliable medical data transmission.
