In this paper, we study the problem of routing, bandwidth and flow assignment in wireless body area networks (BANs). We present an adaptive joint routing and bandwidth allocation protocol for traffic streaming in BAN. Our solution considers BAN for real-time data streaming applications, where the real-time nature of data streams is of critical importance for providing a useful and efficient sensorial...
In the context of Smart City environments, wireless sensor networking is playing a major role when enabling the utilization of networked infrastructures to introduce or improve a wide variety of services to be available to the citizens. How nodes communicate with each other is a key issue in these types of networks. This work presents a simple but yet efficient network discovery and tree construction...
This paper revisits the problem of multisession multicast tree construction with bandwidth allocation in wireless sensor networks. Previous work has shown that when the goal is to find multicast routing tree, the problem becomes NP-complete. In this work, we present a heuristic Energy-Efficient Multisession Multicast protocol (EEMM) that uses fuzzy logic to evaluate nodes' and network conditions during...
In this paper, we study the problem of routing, bandwidth and flow assignment in Wireless Body Area Networks (BANs). Our solution considers BAN for real-time data streaming applications, where the real-time nature of data streams is of critical importance for providing a useful and efficient sensorial feedback for the user while system lifetime should be maximized. Thus, bandwidth and energy efficiency...
In this work, we focus on Body Area Networks (BANs) for real-time data streaming applications, where the realtime nature of data streams is of critical importance for providing a useful and efficient sensorial feedback for the user while system lifetime should be maximized. Thus, bandwidth, throughput and energy efficiency of the communication protocol must be carefully optimized. In this paper, we...
In Body Area Networks (BANs), quality of service is needed to provide reliable data communication over prioritized data streams coming from energy constrained sensors attached to, or possibly implanted in, patients. In this work, we focus on BAN for real-time data streaming applications, where the real-time nature of data streams is of critical importance for providing a useful and efficient sensorial...
Wireless Body Area Networks (BANs) have the ability of gathering and sending on-body measurements to a terminal. Autonomous nodes are deployed on the body to monitor vital signs and environmental parameters. The IEEE 802.15.6 standard mainly specifies physical and medium access for BANs. Routing is discussed as part of the link layer and multihop is not fully considered. Several studies state that...
