Overview

DARE

In medical field: WBAN makes use of the tiny sensors for detecting and monitoring

different biological characteristics of a human body.

The sensors can either be: in-vivo

wearable

DARE

Problem Statement

DARE

Major concerns for BANs: minimizing energy consumption of the nodes

enhancing network lifetime

enhancing stability period of the network

maximizing throughput

minimizing delay

DARE

Motivation

DARE

Monitoring different organs of a human body for detecting

an ailment or any disorder.

The proposed protocol DARE aims: to improve the deficiencies in a BAN protocol of M-ATTEMPT

namely,

minimum stability period

minimum network lifetime

high energy consumption

low throughput

DARE Scenarios

DARE

Scenario-1

The BSs on each patient carry information and transmit to their respective BR which, then aggregates and relay the received data to the sink located at the center of the

ward. The communication flow is from BSs to BR to Sink.

DARE

Scenario-2

Four sinks have been used that are separately deployed in the middle of the walls of the ward. The BSs of each patient, on sensing the vital sign transmit data to their

respective BR. The BR checks for the nearest sink by calculating it’s distance with each sink. Whichever, sink is found nearest, the BR communicates with that particular sink. The communication flow is from BSs to BR to nearest Sink (Sink1 or Sink2 or Sink3 or

Sink4).

DARE

Scenario-3

MS is incorporated on each bed which, can be a PDA type device. The deployment of MS helps the BR to consume little energy as, BR transmits data over shorter distance.

However, this scenario increases the delay in the network, as the data traverses through a long route towards the destination node, the Sink. Communication flow is

from BSs to BR to MS to Sink.

DARE

Scenario-4

It follows the same communication flow as sceanrio-1, however, now the sink is made mobile which, moves along the center of ward.

DARE

Scenario-5

Multiple sinks move around the walls of the ward altogether. In this scenario also, each BR measures it’s distance with each sink. Whosoever is found close, the BR starts communicating with that sink. The communication flow is from BSs to BR to the

nearest moving Sink (Sink1 or Sink2 or Sink3 or Sink4).
