“…Although this is a reliable and new technology that can be used for body area network applications, wireless USB is not cost efficient and has thus far not been discussed in the literature for e-Health applications. However, the performance of this technology is evaluated by Sohn et al (2008), andLi et al (2009).…”

One of the most rapidly growing technology areas is the advances in sensing, networking, and miniaturization in medical domain, which enables innovative new applications. This is especially apparent in e-Health and telemedicine. There is an enormous demand for innovation in wireless sensor networking, body area networks, network security and routing, and many other areas, attracting the attention of numerous researchers. With all the advances it can be challenging to identify trends and areas with opportunities for research engagement. In this paper, the authors therefore review the state-of-the-art in wireless communication used in telemedicine and e-Health applications – ranging from the Wide Area Networks to Body Area Networks – and discuss the studies and literature that employ these technologies for e-Health applications. Moreover, recent routing protocols and techniques that are used for Body Area Networks are investigated. One key challenge for e-Health applications, particularly for mobile or patient-worn devices, is energy consumption and supply. One possible solution is found in energy harvesting, and our survey encompasses current challenges and accomplishments in its application to e-Health and discuss various promising techniques.

“…The primary goal of our proposed architecture is to reduce the latency in parsing the MMC packets in order to serve the IN CTA and OUT CTA slots [2]. To overcome the limitations posed by the original reference architecture [1] and the reference architecture [1], we have introduced the TCM again with the help of our proposed TCM controller which connects the MAC controller to the TCM directly.…”

In this paper we propose an architecture of a CWUSB System to reduce the system latency in order to achieve high throughput. The performance of CWUSB devices depends more on practical implementation issues, mostly system latency, rather than the theoretical parameters. This suggests that the primary design objective should be the minimization of system latency. WiMedia Alliance and Universal Serial Bus Implementers Forum (USB-IF) are making every effort to open a market for Certified Wireless USB (CWUSB), a new wireless version of a widely known computer interface. Although WUSB is based on WiMedia Ultra Wideband (UWB) technology, which promises a maximum physical data rate of 480Mbps, yet unfortunately, all WUSB products are known to fall short of expectations on their performance. This paper presents a solution to this issue. The performance of the proposed architecture has been compared to that of the reference architecture. We have also measured the throughputs for some applications using the proposed architecture. The results clearly show a marked improvement in the throughput.
