Abstract |
|
BANs are commonly regarded as an enabling technology for a variety of applications, including health and fitness monitoring, emergency response and device control. Recent breakthroughs in solid-state electronics afford for the creation of low-power, low-profile devices that can be modularly interconnected in order to create so-called sensor nodes comprised of one or more sensor devices, a microcontroller unit (MCU), and a radio transceiver that eliminates the need for wires to communicate with the coordinator node in order to transfer the collected data. In this survey, a review of the on-going research in WBANs in terms of system architecture, applications, how it different from Wireless Sensor Network and also describes the MAC protocols in WBAN. |
