INTRODUCTION:

The Internet of Things (IoT) empowered administrations has picked up signiﬁcant notoriety in ranges, for example, keen home and structures, well-being screening, water dissemination frameworks, shrewd lattices, cutting- edge assembling and brilliant urban areas. There is additionally rising enthusiasm for wearable sensors which are utilized for well-being checking and administration^1,2,3. In these applications, secure communication between IoT customer servers and cloud servers essentially required. Customary cryptography for the most part depends on the presence of at least one bit of mystery data, ordinarily named the key, to play out a mystery trade of data. Given that the key is covertly put away, the scientific properties of the cryptographic calculations guarantee the in-feasibility of numerical assaults on the figure.

Notwithstanding, with the problem sending of IoT gadgets and capacity of the key is progressively turning into a testing suggestion, particularly in the wake of intense usage subordinate assaults, for example, side channel assaults^4,5,6.

In5 contend that modest registering gadgets that frame universality in IoT area are especially powerless against various security assaults and outline, investigation and scientific classification of security and protection challenges in IoT is presented^7,8. Some business following frameworks is accessible in the market which gives the following of individual vehicles as hostile to robbery arrangements. These days, the auto organizations are giving inbuilt GPS in their new models. However, these are not appropriate for answering our issue as there is no security include in the GPS beacons given by these organizations.

It is vital to note that in specific applications constant secure checking is fundamental. For example, in the event of any miss happening, there is a need of rescue vehicle, the time between reaching clinic and when the emergency vehicle conveys the patient to healing facility is extremely essential. As a rule, the specialists don’t recognize what isn't right with the patient until he achieves the healing facility or here and there it happens that when the patient achieves clinic it is found that some required solution or apparatuses are not available which are required for treatment. This is especially the situation in creating countries. This hole in data sharing can now and then ends up being lethal. In such circumstances, it is ideal to use the season of transportation of the patient to accumulate data about him/her so that the healing facility can get ready in advance for any crisis. The specialists can know precisely what isn't right with the patient while he is being transported and get any required apparatuses or medication in that time. Using this crevice in return of data to do helpful undertakings can affect lives of numerous, who may have endured in the event that there was postponement in correspondence. In this paper, we take this as a base application where the extremely poor transportation framework and doctor's facility administration, and even little diminishment in the postponement for a treatment of the patient can demonstrate exceptionally efficient. We propose a protected IoT answer for this issue.

PROBLEM STATEMENTS:

a. Poor Call Centre Facilities: One common problem faced by all the people is mismanagement of the call centre facilities of the ambulance providers. The death rates due to slow emergency response are not avoidable.

b. A Transparent Communication Network: It is difficult sometimes to make someone understand your address so that an ambulance can be sent to that place. Also, most of the ambulances have tie-ups with some hospitals and the patient will be taken to only that hospital whether he wants it or not.

c. Emergency Situations: The death rates due to slow emergency response are not avoidable. The chance of survival for the crash victim depends on how fast help arrives.

SOLUTIONS:

Whenever there is an accident or some emergency situation almost all the people call 102 for ambulance services. While asking for an emergency vehicle, one regular issue confronted by every one of the general population is the management of the rescue vehicle suppliers. The death rates because of moderate crisis reaction are not avoidable. The odds of survival for the crash casualties rely on upon how quick help arrives. Another issue that holds on is that it is troublesome in some cases to make somebody comprehend your address so that an ambulance can be sent to that place. The application evacuates this correspondence obstruction as the entire framework will now be automated. One can call for an ambulance simply just by clicking on a button. Additionally, a large portion of the ambulances have tie-ups with a few healing facilities and the patient will be taken to just that doctor's facility whether he wants it or not. In our application, we are giving an arrangement to pick the healing facility as per the client decision. This will help making a neutral and straightforward system. In the case of an emergency, the emergency button will have to be pressed and the location of the user will be linked with the location of nearby ambulances and the nearest ambulance will be assigned to the user and he/she will be taken to the nearest hospital.

SYSTEM LAYOUT:

For getting area of the emergency vehicle, a GPS beacon is introduced in it. This gadget is fit for getting GPS area and presenting the information on a server. Versatile applications are given to the clients and healing facilities, through which they can track rescue vehicle area. The framework works in a Server-Client mode. There is a focal server which goes about as the mediator between the GPS beacon in an emergency vehicle and the patient and healing facility applications. All the GPS beacons post the area of rescue vehicle to a server. The server utilizes a database to store these. The patient's or clinic's application can ask for the information of a specific emergency vehicle. It’s the employment of server to verify the approaching solicitation and give access to just legitimate clients. Every rescue vehicle is connected with a healing facility, so they can get to information of every one of their ambulances. Fig. 1 shows the layout of the proposed system.

The GPS module and GSM module^9,10 are interfaced to Arduino Mega 2560. The GPS module fetches the location and gives it to the GSM module which sends all the data to the cloud server. From the cloud server, the data are sent to the hospital and as well as to the user or the patient. The same data is also fetched by the Application which shows the location of the Ambulance to the user. By this, the user can easily track and get know that when will the Ambulance reach at his place.

IMPLEMENTATION:

At the point, when a patient demands the rescue vehicle, the server allocates the accessible emergency vehicle and informs the doctor's facility. At that point the patient can likewise track the emergency vehicle doled out to him/her. Moreover, another application is accommodated in emergency vehicle overseer, who can post extra information about patient's condition to the server, which is naturally imparted to the doctor's facility. The first interaction of the user will be with the Android Application. Then, there is a button on the home screen of the Application. Clicking on it, the user will be directed to a new screen where he/she will have to enter his details like Name, Contact Number and Address. The third screen of the Application lets the user to choose the hospital to which he wishes to take the patient. On the fourth screen, along with the details about the Ambulance request, there are two options for the user. One is contacting the Hospital and the other is tracking the Location of the Ambulance assigned for him.

There is an Emergency button provided on the Home Screen of the Application. In emergency cases, the Emergency button will have to be pressed. This will link the location of the user to the location of nearby available Ambulances. The server will look for the Ambulance, which is nearest to the location of the user and automatically assign that particular ambulance for the user. That Ambulance will take the patient to the nearest hospital available in that particular region.

On the other hand, a GPS module is installed in the ambulance which will track its location and send it to the server and the user via a text message with the help of a GSM module, which is also installed in the Ambulance.

RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:

The GPS module is showing the location in the form of accurate NEMA values. This data is being transmitted to the GSM module, which is to be transmitted. The proposed system are implemented successfully and the output of the GSM and GPS are shown in Fig.2 and Fig .3 respectively.

The GSM module is correctly sending SMS to the user’s Contact Number.
