A wireless body area sensor network (WBASN) consists of a coordinator and multiple sensors to monitor the biological signals and functions of the human body. This exciting area has motivated new research and standardization processes, especially in the area of WBASN performance and reliability. In scenarios of mobility or overlapped WBASNs, system performance will be significantly degraded because of unstable signal integrity. Hence, it is necessary to consider interference mitigation in the design. This survey presents a comparative review of interference mitigation schemes in WBASNs. Further, we show that current solutions are limited in reaching satisfactory performance, and thus, more advanced solutions should be developed in the future.

The rapid development, industrialization and population increase causes high demand of pure water in the urban area. Firstly, the industries, residential areas etc. release dirt, sludge in excess, hence pure water in the rivers get contaminated. Secondly, sewage network operator cannot predict that pipeline would overflow. When an emergency situation occurs, the damage caused by the waste water from sewage networks can be enormous. The government should come up with such a system where it could gather information about muddy water like level, volume, velocity etc. which enable government to restrict the industries. Moreover, critical situation like pipeline overflow can be identified, thus operator gets prior notification about the same. Operating expenses can also be reduced. In addition to above benefits, the information aids the researchers in their research. Pipeline network can be represented on GIS. There could be a security breach to the system so a lightweight and secure cryptographic algorithm should be developed to provide the security for data.

Abstract. An increasing number of applications use RFID in their design, but there is a lack of understanding of how mobility affects RFID performance in these applications. Unlike static RFID experiments, mobile RFID studies require more expensive equipment that are unavailable to most researchers. In this paper, we conduct machine-aided experiments to study the effects of mobility on RFID. Our results show that up to 50 RFID tags moving at speeds up to 2 m/s can be reliably read.
