  4. Wireless Network

  5. Introduction • WBAN is RF based wireless networking technology that interconnects tiny nodes with sensors in, on, or around a human body. • A typical WBAN consists of a number of inexpensive, lightweight, miniature sensor platforms, each featuring one or more physiological sensors like • Motion Sensors • ECG (Electrocardiograms) • Sp02 • Breathing Sensors • Blood pressure • EMG (Electromyograms) • EEG(Electro-encephalograms) • Blood Glucose Sensors

  6. Introduction • Network size of WBAN • Application dependent ( up to 256 devices) • WBAN Sensors could be located on • The body as intelligent patches • Integrated into clothing • Implanted below the skin • Embedded deeply in tissues Figure: Positioning of a Wireless Body Area Network in the realm of wireless networks.

  7. SENSING ACTIVITIES IN MEDICAL BANS

  8. WBAN Traffic Classification • – Normal traffic: Based on normal operation between device and coordinator. • – On-demand traffic: Initiated by Coordinator to know certain information. • – Emergency traffic: In case of critical condition.

  9. WBAN Architecture • Level 1 contains in-body and on-body BAN Nodes (BNs) • Level 2 contains a BAN Network Coordinator (BNC) that gathers patient’s vital information from the BNs and communicates with the base-station. • Level 3 contains a number of remote base-stations that keep patient’s medical/non-medical records and provides relevant (diagnostic) recommendations.

  10. WBAN Applications

  11. CodeBlue CodeBlue is the project of Harvard University trying to develop novel applications of wireless sensor network technology to medical applications. Many products of the project have great potential to apply to practice. Figure 6:Intel SHIMMER motes Stroke patient rehabilitation monitoring system [CodeBlue].

  13. VitalDust: Wireless vital sign monitoring • Mica2-based pulse oximeter Measures heart rate, blood oxygen saturation • Telos-based two-lead Electrocardiogram • PDA- and PC-based applications for multi-patient triage

  15. Major Sources of Energy Waste in Sensor Network • Collision : Two nodes emit at the same time 2. Idle Listening : Node listens to an idle channel 3. Overhearing: Node listens for a message sent to another node

  16. Energy in WBAN • Battery lifetime is very important • Required Lifetime • Swallowable Camera Pills : 12 hours • Cardiac Defibrillators and pacemakers : 5 years • Reducing the waste of energy can maximize battery lifetime • How to improve energy efficiency • Routing • Mobile Base Station • Energy efficient MAC protocol • …

  17. Major MAC Protocol Approaches • Contention Based (CSMA/CA) • Nodes need to perform CCA before transmission of data • If the channel is busy, the node defers its transmission till it becomes idle. • Its infrastructure-free • Ad hoc feature • Good adaptability to traffic fluctuation • Schedule Based(TDMA) • Channels are divided into fixed/variable time slots which are assigned to nodes that transmit during its slot period • Free of idle listening, overhearing and packet collisions because of the lack of medium competition, • But require tight time synchronization.

  19. 802.15.4 Superframe Format Active period Inactive period CAP CFP Contention Free Period beacon beacon Contention Access Period Transmitted by network coordinator. Contains network information, frame structure and notification of pending node messages. Network beacon Contention period Access by any node using CSMA-CA Guaranteed Time Slot Reserved for nodes requiring guaranteed bandwidth Sleep period Inactive Period

  20. 802.15.6 Superframe Format The EAP is Emergency Access Period. -> In this period only devices with emergency traffic can contend. The RAP(Random Access Period) can be used by any device both emergency and non-emergency. -> The data that are accumulated in the device buffers have a priority assigned to them. Each of the devices have to contend with backoff windows according to their priority.

  22. Channel Access Delay • Channel Access Delay is the duration from the time when a packet arrives at the queue until the designated packet gains access to the channel.

  23. MEB-MAC: Superframe Format • Listening Window is placed periodically in Scheduled Access Phase to reduce the access delay of Emergency Data. • A Listening Window is dedicated to emergency alarms to provide high reliability with low delay.
