Usage of transmission parameters detection algorithm for interference reduction in BAN

摘要

The future development of on- and inter-body sensors is going to make these devices more common in people's everyday life. Eventually, these Body Area Networks (BANs) will appear in more and more areas of human life and will grow in numbers. Increase of the density of BAN networks will raise problems of coexistence between them, which is, in some ways, similar to the way people themselves experience problems with the growth of population. Various approaches for the coexistence ability of BANs were developed. In the present paper, we will examine a number of such approaches, which are based on each BAN's ability to achieve knowledge according to transmissions scheduling of interfering BANs and using this knowledge for collision avoidance. Such ability can be achieved by using an algorithm for detection of interfering BANs transmission parameters, which was published in our previous publication. Here we examine the actual usage of this algorithm for inter-BAN collision avoidance.
