Which technology is used in WBAN?
A WBAN system can use WPAN wireless technologies as gateways to reach longer ranges. Through gateway devices, it is possible to connect the wearable devices on the human body to the internet. This way, medical professionals can access patient data online using the internet independent of the patient location.
Which factor is most important for a sensor used in WBAN?
Because the sensors that make up the WBAN need to operate on the skin or within the body, a constant energy supply for the sensor is essential. Therefore, studies consider the methods of improving energy efficiency in WBANs using technology related to the reduction of energy consumption or energy harvesting.
What are the network components of WBAN?
It comprises four components: transceiver, battery, microprocessor and the sensor component. WBAN sensor nodes provide wireless monitoring for anybody, anywhere and anytime. These nodes can be physiological sensors, ambient sensors or bio kinetic sensors [Barakah and Ammad-Uddin 2012].
What is WBAN in IOT?
Wireless body area network (WBAN) is one crucial module of electronic-health recording. Generally, a wireless body area network is arranged on a patient, and customarily contains of a gateway and some of medical MEMS based sensors.
