In this study, Random Contention-based Resource Allocation (RACOON) medium access control (MAC) protocol is proposed to support the quality of service (QoS) for multi-user mobile wireless body area networks (WBANs). Different from existing QoS designs that focus on a single WBAN, a multiuser WBAN QoS should further consider both inter-WBAN interference and inter-WBAN priorities. Similar problems have...
In this paper, a weighted-random-value based resource allocation protocol, WRAP, for multiuser wireless body area network (WBAN) is proposed. WRAP will simultaneously allocate intra and inter WBAN resources by considering both the quality of service (QoS) control in a single WBAN and priority differences among WBANs. Simulation results show that WRAP algorithm can effectively allocate data slots to...
In this paper, an analytical power consumption model for beacon-mode and CSMA/CA-mode access schemes is developed for a wireless body area network (WBAN). Apart from considering the conventional collision from intra-network nodes, the model also investigates the collision caused by the nodes from different moving WBAN groups. From the analysis, we will identify the need of having a hybrid-mode access...
