In this chapter, the framework for IoMT wireless communication system evolution, from current LPWAN/5G connectivity to future B5G systems, focusing on sub THz (mainly in the 100 GHz to 300 GHz frequency range) and THz bands (up to 10 THz) is described. Further, the requirements in terms of device integration, node density, interference and energy handling is also discussed. The specific requirements in terms of wearable devices, considering intra-body, on-body and off-body communication links, coverage/capacity estimations for different case uses considering different communication link types are also presented. At last, different application scenarios, such as the evolution of current IoMT applications towards sensing networks, and security as well as interoperability and standardization aspects within the IoMT communication framework are discussed in detail.application/pdfengWireless communication systemsIoMTinfo:eu-repo/semantics/bookPart2024-10-01info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess
