Reliability and Energy Efficiency Enhancement for Emergency-Aware Wireless Body Area Networks (WBANs) (2018)
Journal Article
Salayma, M., Al-Dubai, A., Romdhani, I., & Nasser, Y. (2018). Reliability and Energy Efficiency Enhancement for Emergency-Aware Wireless Body Area Networks (WBANs). IEEE Transactions on Green Communications and Networking, 2(3), 804-816. https://doi.org/10.1109/tgcn.2018.2813060

Medium Access Control (MAC) protocols based on Time Division Multiple Access (TDMA) can improve the reliability and efficiency of WBAN. However, traditional static TDMA techniques adopted by IEEE 802.15.4 and IEEE 802.15.6 do not sufficiently conside...
