A Wireless Body Area Network (WBAN), also known as a Body Sensor Network (BSN) or a Medical Body Area Network (MBAN), is a wireless network of wearable computing devices. These devices can be embedded inside the body as implants or pills, surface-mounted on the body in fixed positions, or carried by humans in various ways (such as in clothes pockets, by hand, or in bags). WBANs consist of multiple small body sensor units (BSUs) and a single central unit (BCU). Despite the trend toward smaller devices, larger smart devices still play an essential role as data hubs or gateways, providing a user interface for viewing and managing BAN applications on the spot1. These networks enable continuous health monitoring, real-time updates of medical records, and other applications related to health and well-being. The remote Control of People!
