In this paper we are concerned with the problem of data forwarding from a wireless body area network (WBAN) to a gateway when body shadowing affects the ability of WBAN nodes to communicate with the gateway. To solve this problem we present a new WBAN architecture that uses two communication technologies. One network is formed between on-body nodes, and is realized with capacitive body-coupled communication...
Body-coupled communication (BCC) is a technology that is based on the use of capacitively-coupled electric fields over the human body. In this paper we highlight the design and implementation of a medium access control (MAC) protocol specifically designed to meet the requirements of BCC-enabled body area networks (BANs). We propose a set of specific protocol enhancements over well-known MAC protocols...
