Abstract: The choice of network architecture for body sensor networks is an important one because it significantly affects overall system design and performance. Current approaches use propagation models or specific medium access control protocols to study architectural choices. The issue with the first approach is that the models do not capture the effects of interference and fading. Further, the question of architecture can be raised without imposing a specific MAC protocol. In this paper, we first evaluate the star a… Show more

“…The work presented in [47] was the first attempt to point the benefits of using multi-hop communications in wireless body area networks (WBAN). Later, Natarajan et al experimentally investigated the impact of network topology on the average number of retransmissions, network lifetime [48] and packet delivery ratio [49]. They concluded that the multi-hop strategy is more reliable especially in outdoor settings.…”

“…Indeed, all existing WSN for rehabilitation adopted a star topology with one-hop communications between each node and the gateway. However, there are evidence that multi-hop communications can be better than one hop communications in several cases [48] [49]. Thus, multi-hop communications should be used in rehabilitation applications and their performance should be investigated.…”

“…Yun et al [11] studies the energy-efficient communications for BodyNets. NUS group studies the architecture of BodyNets and proposes their own architecture [12]. More research works have also been conducted on the BodyNet adaptability, self-organization, middle-ware, signal processing, system reliability and healthcare and monitoring [12][13][14][15].…”
