“…At present, the research on routing protocols for WBAN is mainly divided into the following methods [14,15], and this paper refers to the classification method presented by Bangash et al [14], (as shown in Figure 3) posture-based routing, temperature-based routing, cross-layer routing, QoS-based routing, and cluster-based routing.…”

The emergence of wireless body area network (WBAN) technology has brought hope and dawn to solve the problems of population aging, various chronic diseases, and medical facility shortage. The increasing demand for real-time applications in such networks, stimulates many research activities. Designing such a scheme of critical events while preserving the energy efficiency is a challenging task, due to the dynamic of the network topology, severe constraints on the power supply, and the limited computation power. The design of routing protocols becomes an essential part of WBANs and plays an important role in the communication stacks and has a significant impact on the network performance. In this paper, we briefly introduce WBAN and focus on the analysis of the routing protocol, classify, and compare the advantages and disadvantages of various routing protocols. Lastly, we put forward some problems and suggestions, which provides ideas for the follow-up routing design.

In this paper, a Stable, Thermal-aware and Energy-efficient routing Protocol (STEP) is proposed for Wireless Body Area Networks (WBANs) that not only deals with the thermal aspects and hot-spots problem but also saves energy and extends the stability period and network lifetime. Direct communication is used for real-time traffic (critical data) while multi-hop communication is used for normal data delivery. In multi-hop communication to achieve minimum power consumption and minimum temperature rise, the proposed protocol has a new cost function using multi-criteria decision making MCDM methods to determine the parent node or the forwarder. These methods provide a flexible decision-making process for selecting the next hop by considering different criteria at the same time. The proposed cost function has three criteria: residual energy, distance to the sink node and temperature. Residual energy criterion balances the energy consumption among the sensor nodes while distance criterion ensures successful packet delivery to the sink node and minimize the energy that will be consumed, the temperature criterion will avoid routing across hot nodes to protect the tissues. The simulation results show that the proposed protocol preserves the energy and increases the network lifetime & stability period so nodes stay alive for a longer period. A longer stability period contributes significantly to the delivery of packets, which is very important for continuous patient monitoring. Results also depict that the proposed protocol can achieve a better balance of the temperature rise comparing to the previous protocols.

“…The variant attempt has been made by the researchers in this domain but with having different perspectives. As in [2], the authors developed Adaptive Threshold-unaware Energy efficient Multi-hop Protocol (NEW-ATTEMPT) mechanism for energy efficient routing. This traditional protocol proposed in this method uses a heterogeneous sensor network in the human body.…”

With the wireless communication, the ways of communication in present era of technology has changed which helps in fastest and efficient way of communication in each and every domain. In the field of medical science, to sense the human body activities such as heartbeat, blood pressure and other activities performed by internal body parts of the human, Wireless Sensor Network is employed. Then this sensed data is transmitted to the centralized server. The information that is collected is made to transfer to the destination through a dedicated route created by routing protocols in form of data packets. Thus, the network sometimes faces the issue of congestion due to increased data traffic to the nodes. The present paper defines an enhanced congestion handling concept for Wireless Body Area Network. For this purpose, the cost function of the nodes is evaluated on the basis of major factors such as distance, residual energy and delay. Additionally, by applying the Fuzzy Inference System, the congestion control model is executed. It also improves the routing strategy by introducing the firefly algorithm based forward-looking node selection approach. For evaluation, the proposed work is simulated in MATLAB and compared with the traditional congestion technique. The simulation results show that the lifetime of the network increases by 30%. The efficiency of packet received at sink improves by 18%. Path loss in the present study is 33% less as compared to traditional approach. And, also consumes near about 8% less energy.
