eHealth WBAN: Energy-Efficient and Priority-Based Enhanced IEEE802.15.6 CSMA/CA MAC Protocol
Journal Title: International Journal of Advanced Computer Science & Applications - Year 2018, Vol 9, Issue 4
Abstract
This paper provided a general study of Wireless Body Area Network (WBAN) in health monitoring system as well as the study of the application of wearable and implanted Bio-Medical-Sensors (BMS) which are used to monitor the vital signs of a patient in early detection. Energy efficiency is a significant issue in WBAN which can be achieved by reducing the overhead of control packets, prioritizing sensor-nodes and sink-node selection. Moreover, uncertainty in network topologies, such as distance and link affect between sensor-nodes occurs due to the mobility of human. In this research, we propose a scheme to reduce the overhead of control packets and prioritizing the threshold values of vital signs by assigning low and high transmission power with enhanced IEEE802.15.6 CSMA/CA as well as introduce a Mobility Link Table (MLT) for selecting a sink-node to communicate with the coordinator. Compare it with existing IEEE802.15.6 CSMA/CA technique and results shows the proposed techniques regarding mean power consumption, network delay, network throughput.
