Variable Scheduling to Mitigate Channel Losses in Energy-Efficient Body Area Networks
We consider a typical body area network (BAN) setting in which sensor nodes send data to a common hub regularly on a TDMA basis, as defined by the emerging IEEE 802.15.6 BAN standard. To reduce transmission losses caused by the highly dynamic nature of the wireless channel around the human body, we explore variable TDMA scheduling techniques that allow the order of transmissions within each TDM...
متن کاملEnergy Efficient Fuzzy Routing Protocol in Wireless Body Area Networks
To prolong the lifetime of a wireless body area sensor network (WBAN) is the most important concern in due to limited battery power of sensor nodes. Routing in WBAN is a very challenging problem due to the efficient utilization of energy. This paper focuses on energy efficient fuzzy routing protocol. Protocol based on fuzzy inference system computation reduces power consumption when compared to...
متن کاملEnergy-Efficient Channel Access Scheduling For Power-Constrained Networks
In this paper we introduce the Distributed Energy-Aware Node Activation (DEANA) channel access protocol for powerconstrained networks. Conventional channel access protocols waste energy during periods of idle listening and collisions. In DEANA, the radio is switched to a low power, stand-by mode when a node is not transmitting or receiving which makes DEANA very attractive for sensor networks. ...
متن کاملA New Energy-Efficient Topology for Wireless Body Area Networks
Wireless body area networks consist of several devices placed on the human body, sensing vital signs and providing remote recognition of health disorders. Low power consumption is crucial in these networks. A new energy-efficient topology is provided in this paper, considering relay and sensor nodes' energy consumption and network maintenance costs. In this topology design, relay nodes, placed ...
متن کاملEnergy Efficient Cooperative Communications for Wireless Body Area Networks
It is expected that Wireless Body Area Network (WBAN) will greatly improve the quality of our life because of its myriad applications for our human beings. However, one of the challenges is to design energy efficient communication protocols to support the reliable communication as well as to prolong the network lifetime. Cooperative communications have the advantage of spatial diversity to comb...
