Clustering AODV Algorithm for the Body Area Sensor Networks Based on IEEE 802.15.4

Abstract

The development of wireless medical sesnsor networks for health care application has made patient monitoration more feasible. Recently, several wireless health care researchers have developed many techniques for the sole purpose of incessant monitoration of patients, monitoring in hospitals and clinics, monitoring in ambulance, and free environmental monitoring. There is particular standard which is used for low power devices for their operations inside human body for different application in healthcare. Wireless body area network is subfiled of WSN. WBAN play very crucial role in patient monitoring to fetch data from human body with help of sensors and send back to destion point or base station.  There are different challenges like size of sensor, antenna design, power backup and many more in WBAN to meet desired result. In this paper AODV clustering algorithm implemented and in reference work D-MAC protocol used. After making a deep analysis we found that proposed clustering algorithm has better result in term of networking parameters like energy consumption, throughput, end to end delay, packet delivery ratio, received packet using IEEE 802.15.4. Further we can add security mechanism so that data cannot be accessed by unauthorized person.
