Abstract

It is a familiar fact that conservation and preservation of network energy is one of the primary objectives of the sensor nodes in a wireless sensor network. This becomes even more important when we are talking about Wireless Body Area Network (WBAN). In this case, the sensor nodes are working either very close to or inside a human body. Hence performance is a very important task here. In this project we aim to reduce the consumption of energy while a transmission is made. We tend to strategically toggle between working/non-working status of a sensor node while it is being involved or not involved in the transmission process. This was, we are able to increase the network time by a very good amount. Other deceptive parameters are also to be calculated. With the advancement in technology, we now have access to wearable physiological monitoring system. In this concept, an individual will wear a fabric in which a collection of sensors will be embedded. All these sensors will be connected to a central monitoring system. Sensors will continuously send data to these central monitoring systems. Hence, wireless sensors are now being used as wearable gadgets. But the limitation here is that they have very limited amount of energy. And when it comes in medical terms, every fault in an instrument can be a factor in determining the cause of a healthy life or an unnoticed illness. Hence, it becomes very important to work on these sensors and give them a long lifetime so that their monitoring does not get affected. There are many ways we can achieve this. Good amount of research has been done in this domain. We here are working on an algorithm in which a sensor node will be strategically switched on and off based upon its usage. This way, only the appropriate amount of energy will be used by the sensor and overall energy of the complete system or network will be preserved on a larger extent.
