An Approach for Data Routing in Wireless Body Area Network

Abstract

Remote monitoring is made much easier by Wireless Body Area Networks (WBANs), which also enable medical professionals to treat patients precisely. The most important use of WBAN is for tracking physical body parameters. Implanted or externally distributed heterogeneous sensors make up a WBAN. Despite having a few distinctive features, these sensors face numerous difficulties. The main issues that demand for special routing protocols include energy conservation, thermal awareness, and mobility support. Many current protocols looked into one or two of these problems. Our goal is to look into how the three issues interplay in this subject. We propose a novel routing protocol that overcomes the shortcomings of past research. The proposed method has the potential to increase network lifetime, protect the body from radiation hazards, and adapt to frequent body postures.
