In modern times, enemy threat plays a vital role in the security policies of any nation. In this expectation, the military played a vital and important role. There are several considerations regarding the safety of those soldiers in the Line of Control (LOC). In our paper a health monitoring system based on IoT technology and military tracking is being developed to monitor the health status of soldiers and warn them in case they cross the border unintentionally. The proposed system contains a military module that can be inserted into a soldier’s body to track his or her current state of health and location using GPS and HUB module. The Military Module contains small wearable sensors such as heart rate and temperature sensor and transmission modules. The Communication Protocol used is LoRa WAN, which can be used for an active high-speed transmission range. The harp can be established every 15 miles through the Control line. This hub contains LoRa WAN and Raspberry pi that act as a gateway. The boundaries of health and military status are determined and transferred to the harp. This information is then transmitted to the base station via IoT. Therefore, with the use of the proposed equipment, it is possible to use an accurate system to monitor the health conditions of soldiers from remote areas.
