Academic Press Library in Biomedical Applications of Mobile and Wireless Communications: Wireless UWB Body Area Networks

Wireless sensor and body area networks (WSN and WBAN respectively) have been seen as a future way to monitor humans'' psycho-physiological signs remotely. There are a number of standards that could be used for building WBAN sytems. However, wireless UWB networks based on IEEE 802.15.4a offer the advantages of a large frequency range and low power spectral density, making it suitable for both WSNs ...
