Analysis of Transmission Power Control (TPC) in wireless Body Area Network (WBAN)

Abstract

For monitoring mobile healthcare service WBAN using everywhere in modern age. WBAN system has too fast energy consumption still now. As WBAN is a portable device, low power consumption device for long time battery life and light weight is preferred.A ZigBee based WBAN model for light weight and longtime battery life has been proposed.Star, mesh and cluster network topologies with different data rate used in the ZigBee sensor node. WBAN data-management technique has been proposed due to reduce more data transmission.Less data transmission reduce the overall power consumption. The whole work is done by using two simulator, OPNET and OMNETpp network simulator. Applied different topologies in the scenario found throughput, load, delay, data traffic, amount of power consumption, packet delivery ratio etc. TPC analysis indicate that which topology consume low power in different topologies. Several simulation scenarios were run and the results were analyzed.
