Proposal of a hierarchical topology and spatial reuse superframe for enhancing throughput of a cluster‐based WBAN

A cluster topology was proposed with the assumption of zero noise to improve the performance of wireless body area networks (WBANs). However, in WBANs, the transmission power should be reduced as low as possible to avoid the effect of electromagnetic waves on the human body and to extend the lifetim...
