The architecture proposed herein is based on IoT integrated with a cloud system in which power absorption and accuracy are major concerns. We discuss and analyze development in this domain to improve the performance of IoT systems related to health care. Standards of communication for IoT data transmission and reception can help to understand the exact power absorption in different devices to achieve improved performance for healthcare development. We also systematically analyze the use of IoT in healthcare systems using cloud features, as well as the performance and limitations of IoT in this field. Furthermore, we discuss the design of an IoT system for efficient monitoring of various healthcare issues in elderly people and limitations of an existing system in terms of resources, power absorption and security when implemented in different devices as per requirements. Blood pressure and heartbeat monitoring in pregnant women are examples of high-intensity applications of NB-IoT (narrowband IoT), technology that supports widespread communication with a very low data cost and minimum processing complexity and battery lifespan. This article also focuses on analysis of the performance of narrowband IoT in terms of delay and throughput using single- and multinode approaches. We performed analysis using the message queuing telemetry transport protocol (MQTTP), which was found to be efficient compared to the limited application protocol (LAP) in sending information from sensors.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/s23115155","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2023,5,28]],"date-time":"2023-05-28T15:29:52Z","timestamp":1685287792000},"page":"5155","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":32,"title":["Challenges and Limitation Analysis of an IoT-Dependent System for Deployment in Smart Healthcare Using Communication Standards Features"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"23","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-2991-1866","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Shrikant","family":"Upadhyay","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Electronics & Communication Engineering, Cambridge Institute of Technology (CIT), Tatisilwai 835103, India"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Mohit","family":"Kumar","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of IT, MIT Art, Design and Technology University, Pune 412201, India"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Aditi","family":"Upadhyay","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Electronics and Communication Engineering, School of Engineering, Jaipur National University, Jaipur 302017, India"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-3136-4029","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Sahil","family":"Verma","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Computer Science & Engineering, Uttranchal University, Dehradun 248007, India"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-5422-1659","authenticated-orcid":false,"family":"Kavita","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Computer Science & Engineering, Uttranchal University, Dehradun 248007, India"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Maninder","family":"Kaur","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Computer Science and Applications, Guru Gobind Singh College for Women, Chandigarh 160019, India"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Ruba Abu","family":"Khurma","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Computer Science Department, Faculty of Information Technology, Al-Ahliyya Amman University, Amman 19328, Jordan"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-5258-0620","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Pedro A.","family":"Castillo","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Computer Engineering, Automation and Robotics, ETSIIT, University of Granada, 18012 Granada, Spain"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2023,5,28]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"104718","DOI":"10.1016\/j.bspc.2023.104718","article-title":"An augmented Snake Optimizer for diseases and COVID-19 diagnosis","volume":"84","author":"Khurma","year":"2023","journal-title":"Biomed.
