Packet Forwarding with Minimum Energy Consumption in Body Area Sensor Networks
2010
2010 7th IEEE Consumer Communications and Networking Conference
Body Area Sensor Networks (BASNs) are powered by batteries and hence energy is a scarce resource. Thus communication protocols in BASN need to be energy efficient. This paper addresses this problem by proposing a Minimum Energy Packet Forwarding Protocol (MEPF). First, we analyze the tradeoff of energy consumption between lower transmission power and packet retransmission. Then we propose the transmission power control part of MEPF. It transmits a packet using the minimum transmission power
