Abstract

Many low-power devices mounted on a body and connected in a network form a wireless body area network (WBAN). The physiological signals generated by the body are captured by these low-power devices called as nodes and are then transmitted to the base station or sink for further processing. The sensor nodes deployed on the human body form a network and share the information by the use of different routing protocols which have a significant impact on the dissipation of energy and reliability of the networks. Sensor nodes can self arrange themselves for the configuration of cluster head in a non-centralized hierarchical routing. The nodes are unacquainted about the whole rational structure of the network during self-configuring. The base station first collects information and residual energy of each node in a planned routing technique. This paper proposes an energy-efficient reliable routing protocol for transmission of data from the nodes to the base station by cluster formation with the analysis of the residual energy of all the nodes. The comparison of the proposed protocol energy efficient and reliable routing (EERR) with that of the M-ATTEMPT protocol based on energy dissipation with time, data packet sent and the system life span of network shows that system life span is increased for the network.
