Regulation of radio began in 1910 when Congress passed modest legislation over the infant wireless communication industry. Following the development of broadcasting and a surge of growth during the 1920s, the Radio Act of 1927 was passed. The act created an independent commission to determine regulatory policy for broadcasting in the United States. The venerable Communications Act of 1934 expan...

Wearable computers are the most recent generation of portable machines. Worn on the body, they provide constant access to computing and communications resources. In general, a wearable computer may be defined as a computer that is subsumed into the personal space of the user, controlled by the wearer and has both operational and interactional constancy, i.e. is always on and always accessible [...

Sensor networks deals with study of set of transducers with a communication infrastructure used to monitor physical or environmental conditions, such as temperature, sound, pressure, speed, illumination intensity, sound intensity, chemical concentrations, pollutant levels, Body functions etc. International Journal of sensor networks and data communications helps us to gain knowledge on the rece...

Body language is a significant aspect of modern communications and relationships. Appearance at workplace has been debatable topic whether it affects the productivity or not. Right body appearance person helps in making positive interpersonal relationships which foster healthy environment thus enhances performance employees results better productivity. This research aimed examining importance o...

This paper presents an experimental investigations and analyses of ultra-wideband antenna diversity techniques and their effect on the on-body radio propagation channels. Various diversitycombining techniques are applied to highlight; how the overall system performance may be enhanced. Diversity gain is calculated for five different on-body channels and the impact of variation in the spacing be...

Coexistence, and hence interference mitigation, across multiple wireless body area networks (WBANs) is an important problem as WBANs become more pervasive. Here, two-hop relay-assisted cooperative communications using opportunistic relaying (OR) is proposed for enhancement of coexistence for WBANs. Suitable time division multiple access (TDMA) schemes are employed for both intra-WBAN and inter-...
