Abstract:Wireless Body Area Networks (WBANs) are an integral part of a Wireless sensor network, where sensor nodes are strategically placed in the human body to sense physiological signals and transmit them to the medical personnel via server for medical observations. Every sensor node in WBANs has a general limitation in energy efficiency, end-to-end delay, residual energy, etc. Also, the high energy consumption in WBANs is mainly due to the number of hops covered during physiological signal transmission.
