Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsBER Performance and Data Throughput of Sinusoidal Template-Based Impulse-Radio Ultra Wideband Receivers for Wireless Body Area NetworksMohamad Abou El-Nasr, Heba ShabanWindowed sinusoidal template-based correlator receivers are good candidates for high-data rate low-power Ultra Wideband (UWB) systems. Their performance approaches the performance of optimal detectors and provides low-power consumption. However, the ultra short pulses of UWB technology makes it sensitive to timing-errors. In this paper, the Bit-Error-Rate (BER) performance and maximum allowable data throughput of Equally-Correlated Pulse Position Modulation (EC-PPM) modulation … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 5 · 30 May 2013 · 6,503 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Secure Key Management Technique for Wireless Body Area NetworksVenkatasubramanian Sivaprasatham, Jothi VenkateswaranIn Wireless Body Area Networks (WBAN), the key factors to be considered for transmission of confidential data are security and privacy as it is mostly having applications in emergency medical response systems. The lack of security may lead to loss of data privacy resulting in an adversary to bring in bogus data or altering the legal ones. Hence in this … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 8, Issue 11 · 5 Sep 2012 · 7,201 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractWireless Body Area Sensor Networks Signal Processing and Communication Framework: Survey on Sensing, Communication Technologies, Delivery and FeedbackKhalid Abu Al-Saud, Massudi Mahmuddin, Amr MohamedProblem statement: The Wireless Body Area Sensor Networks (WBASNs) is a wireless network used for communication among sensor nodes operating on or inside the human body in order to monitor vital body parameters and movements. This study surveys the state-of-the-art on Wireless Body Area Networks, discussing the major components of research in this area including physiological sensing and preprocessing, WBASNs … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 8, Issue 1 · 1 Nov 2011 · 9,155 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Novel Intrusion Detection System for Wireless Body Area Network in Health Care MonitoringT. V.P. Sundararajan, A. ShanmugamProblem statement: Health monitoring, telemedicine, military, interactive entertainment and portable audio/video systems were most promising applications where WBANs can be used. However, designers of such systems face a number of challenging tasks, as they need to address often quite conflicting requirements for size, operating time, precision and reliability. Network security is very important in Wireless Body Area Network (WBAN) since … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 6, Issue 11 · 26 Oct 2010 · 6,707 accessesView PDF Cite
