The latest advances on robotic surgery enable the performance of many surgical procedures by utilizing minimally invasive techniques. In particular, recent 3-D endoscopes have improved the performance of minimally invasive surgical procedures. Based on these advances, performing or visualizing in real-time surgical procedures at a distance can be envisaged. In this paper, we present a performance evaluation of 3-D robotic tele-surgery and training over next generation wireless networks, namely wireless networks based on the long term evolution (LTE) 3GPP standard. Different scheduling strategies are compared and results are analyzed in term of the resulting quality of experience (QoE) for the surgeon.
机器人手术的最新进展使得利用微创技术能够执行许多外科手术。特别是,最近的3D内窥镜提高了微创手术的性能。基于这些进展,可以设想在远距离实时执行或可视化外科手术。在本文中,我们对基于长期演进(LTE)3GPP标准的下一代无线网络,即3D机器人远程手术和培训进行性能评估。比较了不同的调度策略,并根据外科医生最终的体验质量(QoE)对结果进行了分析。
