 Introduction

 WBAN is sub-field of WSNs

 The primary target applications of WBANs are medical
health-care services
 WBANs offer early detection/treatment of diseases, thereby
reducing health-care costs
 WBANs capture accurate and quantitative data from a
variety of sensors (e.g., temperature, blood pressure, heart
rate, etc.)
 Sensors are placed on the human body or in the body

3
 Motivation

 Nodes in WBANs are required to operate under strict

resource Constraints
 Impossible to replace batteries
 Frequent recharging procedure is one of the main obstacles
in WBANs
 Porting routing solutions from WSNs to WBANs is
problematic due to the different network architectures and
operating conditions
 Efficient routing solutions should be designed specifically
for WBANs

SIMPLE: Stable Increased Throughput
Multi-hop Link Efficient Protocol For
WBAN
 Initial Phase
 Selection of Forwarder Node
 Scheduling

7
 Initial Phase

 Sink broadcasts its location through short information

packet
 Sensor nodes store the location of sink
 Each sensor transmits short information packet to sink
which contains node ID, its residual energy and location
 Sink broadcasts information to all sensors

8
 Selection of Forwarder Node

 Minimum cost function value is used to select optimal data

forwarder
 A node with high residual energy and less distance to sink has
minimum cost function

Cost Function (i) = distance (i) /Residual Energy (i) (5)

 Cost function value ensures new forwarder in each round

9
 Scheduling

 Forwarder node assigns TDMA schedule to its children

node
 Children nodes transmit their data in allocated time slot
 TDMA scheduling saves energy of sensor nodes.

Simulation Results

11
 Network lifetime
 Increase in stability period due to appropriate selection of
forwarder node in each round
 Balanced energy consumption among all nodes in stable region
 Chain formation in M-ATTEMPT causes nodes to deplete
more energy

12
 Residual Energy
Nodes utilize less energy in stability period
 Nodes consume energy faster in unstable region

13
 Throughput
 Throughput is the number of packets received successfully
at sink
 More alive nodes contribute towards higher network
throughput

14
 Path loss
 Multi-hop topology minimizes the Path loss
 Direct distant communication causes maximum path loss

15
 Path Loss Model
 Path Loss is the difference between
transmitted power and received power

Where,
PL = Path loss
d = Distance between transmitter and receiver
do = Reference distance
n = Path loss coefficient
16
 Conclusion

 Stable and high throughput routing protocol for

WBANs
 A node with minimum cost function is selected as
forwarder
 Cost function is based on residual energy of
nodes and its distance from sink
 Node with high residual energy and less distance
to sink has minimum value of cost function
