  • Abstract
    This work further investigates paradigm of radiation awareness in WBAN network environments. We incorporate the effect of topology as well as the time domain and environment aspects. Even, if the impact of radiation to human health remains largely unexplored and controversial. In this paper, we propose a multi objectives flow model for WBSNs which allows describing a new optimal deployment model for WBAN sensor devices dynamic topology and the relevant possible trade-offs between coverage, connectivity, network life time and radiation to human health. We propose oblivious deployment heuristics that are radiation aware. Simulation results show that the algorithm balances the energy consumption of nodes effectively and maximize the network lifetime. It will meet the enhanced WBANs requirements, including better delivery ratio, less reliable routing overhead. Our proposed radiation aware deployment heuristics succeed to keep radiation levels low, while not increasing latency.
