DESIGN AND IMPLEMENTATION OF LIGHTWEIGHT ENCRYPTION ALGORITHM FOR WBAN

Abstract

In wireless body area network (WBAN) the data gets corrupted during transmission and reception due to noises and inter-WBAN interference. WBAN must support the combination of low energy consumption and high reliability, but powerful encryption code increase the processing energy consumption of the receiver. So there is a trade-off between the transmitter and the processing energy consumption in  the network. For e-health monitoring in WBAN systems transmission of body signals must be fast to ensure immediate diagnosis and health assistance. This requires a high power  and energy efficient lightweight codes to reduce the power consumption to enhance the network lifeline
