Traffic Modeling of Wireless Body Area Network
Journal Title: IOSR Journals (IOSR Journal of Computer Engineering) - Year 2016, Vol 18, Issue 5
Abstract
Abstract: Wireless Body Area Network (WBAN) is required to provide quality of service (QoS) guarantees for transporting and processing life threatening gathered data. One important aspect of providing QoS guarantees understands the traffic dynamics of the WBAN. Towards this end, the objective of this project is to study the traffic dynamics of WBAN and attempt to equip a traffic model of WBAN over ZigBee. In this project, we implemented three types of network topologies to study traffic dynamics. We studied the end-to-end delay of traffic, the sent traffic histogram and the received traffic histogram. We concluded that the current OPNET ZigBee simulator is not sufficient to provide complete and solid results for traffic modeling. Additionally, we observed that the star topology incurs the lowest end-to-end delay and the tree topology incurs the highest.
