Efficient Hybrid Emergency Aware MAC Protocol for Wireless Body Sensor Networks

Efficient Hybrid Emergency Aware MAC Protocol for Wireless Body Sensor Networks

In Body Sensor Networks (BSNs), two types of events should be addressed: periodic and emergency events. Traffic rate is usually low during periodic observation, and becomes very high upon emergency. One of the main and challenging requirements of BSNs is to design Medium Access Control (MAC) protoco...
