Poster: behavior-aware probabilistic routing for wireless body area sensor networks

摘要: Wireless Body Area Networks (WBANs) can provide continuous and remote monitoring of patients’ physiological history, facilitate automatic sports training, promote interactive games. However, existing single-hop wireless communication scheme faces two major challenges: the impermeability human body to radio waves at frequencies commonly used in WBANs, highly dynamic network topology resulted from movements. In this paper, (i) a prototype multi-hop WBAN is built characterize connectivity during movements, (ii) probabilistic routing algorithm proposed, (iii) evaluation on our system shows that proposed outperforms routings terms average delivery ratio, number hops, end-to-end delay.
