Addressing Schemes for Body Area Networks
IEEE Communications Letters, 2011This letter explores address allocation in Body Area Networks (BANs) and proposes two novel schemes - Optimized Prophet Address Allocation (OPAA) and Hierarchical Collision-free Address Protocol (HCAP). The aim of the schemes is to use fewer bits in the address space, solve address wastage problems, reduce collisions and improve power efficiency.

Semantic Wireless Body Area Networks
2008 30th Annual International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society, 2008In this paper we introduce the concept of semantic Wireless Body Area Network (sWBAN). First the method for semantic interpretation of body sensor data is developed. This method is then illustrated for the case of ECG monitoring, providing the user with real-time monitoring and interpretation of heart activity.

Advances and Challenges in Body Area Network
2011Body Area Network, which consists of several on-body or in-body sensors, is one kind of wireless sensor networks. Great application potential of BAN in all the fields is found, especially in the medical health care. The development of the wireless technologies has greatly motivated the research and development of BAN.

ECG-Cryptography and Authentication in Body Area Networks
IEEE Transactions on Information Technology in Biomedicine, 2012Wireless body area networks (BANs) have drawn much attention from research community and industry in recent years. Multimedia healthcare services provided by BANs can be available to anyone, anywhere, and anytime seamlessly. A critical issue in BANs is how to preserve the integrity and privacy of a person's medical data over wireless environments in a ...

Cooperative Scheduling for Coexisting Body Area Networks
IEEE Transactions on Wireless Communications, 2013Body area networks (BANs), referring to embedded wireless systems in, on and around bodies, are expected to take an important role for health, leisure, sports and all facets of our daily life. In many situations, several BANs coexist in a small environment, resulting in very strong inter-BAN interference which may seriously disturb communications in ...
