Physiological Data Channel Separation for Telemedicine Security
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
In telemedicine systems, user physiological detection data is at risk of being intercepted during transfer from medical detection equipment to central medical websites, compromising security.
Innovation Solution
A method and system where user ID information and physiological detection data are transferred through different channels, with a detection controller binding and sending the data on the network side, ensuring that medical detection equipment remains unaware of the user's identity, thus preventing interception.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Reliability
If user physiological detection data is transferred directly from medical detection equipment to central medical website, then data transfer is simple and direct, but data security is compromised due to risk of interception
Solution Approach 1:
The patent segments the data transfer process into two independent channels: one channel transfers user ID information from handheld equipment to the detection controller, while another channel transfers physiological detection data from medical detection equipment to the detection controller. This segmentation ensures that neither channel contains complete sensitive information, reducing interception risk while maintaining transfer functionality.
Solution Approach 2:
The detection controller serves as an intermediary that receives user ID information and physiological detection data through separate channels, then binds these data sets together. This intermediary approach prevents direct exposure of complete user data profiles during transmission, enhancing security while enabling data association.
2Reliability
If medical detection equipment directly sends data to central medical website, then transmission path is short and efficient, but user identity exposure increases interception risk
Solution Approach 1:
The system performs preliminary actions by having handheld equipment send user ID information to the detection controller before or concurrently with the medical detection equipment sending physiological data. The detection controller pre-establishes the association between user ID and equipment ID, so that when physiological data arrives, the binding process is already prepared, minimizing additional processing time.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent maintains continuous data flow by operating the two channels (user ID transmission and physiological data transmission) in parallel rather than sequentially. This continuity ensures that the binding operation can be performed without significant time loss, as both data streams are available simultaneously for association.
