Nowadays, Internet of Things (IoT) technology has compressed various aspects of day-by-day life, but it has a profound effect on the healthcare sector. Because the IoT role can play a significant part in the aids of IoT-based healthcare applications. Here, many healthcare data packets communicate through the IoT devices such as actuators, sensors, transceivers, etc. Here, vulnerabilities, attacks, and threats overflow for data on the IoT. Hence, addressing IoT-linked security and communication problems needs a robust communication solution. Therefore, this paper aims to develop a novel communication protocol named Whale-based Low-Power and Lossy Network Routing Protocol (RPL) routing protocol. Here, the RPL routing protocol enables IoT network communication with a suitable objective function. The proposed optimization fitness function initially selects the cluster head and chooses the communication path with the help of the RPL routing protocol. Moreover, the developed routing protocol is executed in the MATLAB platform, and simulation results are validated with conventional models. From the comparison, the proposed framework has attained a higher security range and packet delivery ratio.
