In this paper, we propose a novel adaptive carrier sense multiple access scheme with
collision avoidance (CSMA/CA) to perform efficient and reliable data transfer with increased …

Body Coupled Communication (BCC) utilizes human body itself as a communication
medium to provide energy-efficient connectivity between nodes on or around the body …

Motivated by the rising demand for remote and improved healthcare, while decreasing the
cost of using network infrastructures to ensure time and data rate-constrained applications …

We consider a wireless body sensor network (WBAN) which utilizes backscatter technology
for transmission between sensor nodes and the gateway. Backscatter is a passive …

The fabrication of lightweight, ultra-thin, low power and intelligent body-borne sensors leads
