Wireless Body Area Networks (WBAN) is a recent challenging area in the domain of health monitoring. There are several concerns in this area ranging from energy efficient communication to designing delays efficient protocols that support nodes dynamicity induced by human body mobility. This paper focuses on the convergecast or data gathering protocols in WBAN. Our contribution is twofold. First, we extensively analyze the impact of postural body mobility on various classes of multihop convergecast strategies. Our study does not limit itself to the existing state-of-the-art in WBAN, we adapted to WBAN settings strategies from the areas of Delay Tolerant Networks (DTN) and Wireless Sensor Networks (WSN). We evaluate all these strategies via the OMNeT++ simulator that we enriched with realistic human body mobility models and channel models issued from the recent research on biomedical and health informatics. Our simulations show that existing results in DTN and WSN cannot be just extrapolated to WBAN without a deeper investigation. That is, existing convergecast strategies for DTN or WSN do not perform well with postural body movements because of the topological partitioning provoked by important link attenuations due to signal obstructions by clothes or body itself. Our extensive simulations give valuable insights and directions for designing efficient convergecast adaptive strategies in WBAN. Second, we propose and evaluate two novel classes of convergecast strategies. The first class integrates in the routing information the link attenuation while the second one exploits multi (pre-established) paths to the sink node. We stress all the strategies under a realistic channel model and present an extensive analysis in terms of resiliency to mobility, end-to-end delay and energy consumption for seven different mobility patterns. We advocate that, so far, there is no strategy for convergecast in WBAN that optimizes all the above criteria for all possible mobility patterns. However, each considered strategy can be a good candidate for a specific combination of parameters with a specific mobility pattern.

Nowadays Wireless sensor network is one of the fastest growing and emerging area in the scientific and engineering world .Its basic objective is to sense the crucial data and send it Base station so that it take corrective actions further. Sensor nodes interact with each other via various Routing protocols. This paper surveys various network structure and network operation based routing protocols, and explains the current developments of each protocol pursued .The three basic categories of routing techniques explored here are Data centric, hierarchical and location based protocol. Afterward, various QOS protocols are also surveyed with their recent research work. Further, in this paper, ongoing research and future directions in routing are discussed. KeywordsWSN, LEACH, SPEED, PEGASIS, GBR, SPIN. INTRODUCTIONRecent advancements in the field of computing, sensing and communications have attracted Researchers from various quarters for making huge investments in the field of WSN. However, WSN are still in research period and deployed in various applications like monitoring of environment, crop , wildlife, air pollution, urban traffic, volcanic eruption, heritage buildings and detections of landslides, tsunami , emplaced an IED, Healthcare [2].WSN is self organized group of multiple nodes (motes) that can sense the surrounding environmental condition such as humidity, illumination, temperature. Each node senses the data and transmits it to BS for performing specific application [1].Maximum battery energy of motes is consumed in data transmission and reception. Thus, it is essential for routing protocols to prolong sensor node's lifetime by utilizing energy properly, route data via paths that can evade low energy sensor nodes and reduces transmission power in order to maximize WSN's lifetime. This paper provides the various routing protocols which gives possible solutions to the problems.The rest of the paper is structured as follows. Section 1 exhibits the various routing techniques in WSN. A classification and comprehensive survey of routing protocols based on network structure and network operation and its descendents is presented in Section 2. Here we summarize past and current developments in each categorized protocol. Section 3 highlights the ongoing research and future directions in routing. We conclude with final remarks in Section 4. DIFFERENT ROUTING TECHNIQUESThere are basic two routing techniques that are Network structure and Network operations [1] as shown in Fig 1. Further, they are divided into three categories as data centric, hierarchical and location based on the basis of the structure of the network. However, on the basis of operations of network, QoS based protocols and their current developments are discussed.• Data centric Routing-Data centric routing is query based where data are requested through queries. It depends on the naming scheme for the data which eliminates redundant transmissions. Attribute based naming is used for specifying characteristics of data. Here, Sensor node choose...

“…They argue that most of the existing strategies are not directly implementable in WBANs due to their needs in computing capacities, memory or their energy consumption. Finally, building on top of [3,4,5,6,7], they propose and evaluate three classes of convergecast strategies taylored for WABN: 1) Multi-Paths based strategies, 2) Attenuation-based strategies and 3) Gossip-based strategies. Their evaluation does not target the total order delivery property of these strategies neither their resistance to increasing flows of messages.…”

This paper is the first extensive work on total order reliable convergecast in multi-hop Wireless Body Area Networks (WBAN). Convergecast is a many-to-one cooperative scheme where each node of the network transmits data towards the same sink. Our contribution is threefold. First, we stress existing WBAN convergecast strategies with respect to their capacity to be reliable and to ensure the total order delivery at sink. That is, packets sent in a specific order should be received in the same order by the sink. When stressed with transmission rates up to 500 packets per second the performances of these strategies decrease dramatically (more than 90% of packets lost). Secondly, we propose a new posture-centric model for WBAN. This model offers a good characterization of the path availability which is further used to fine tune the retransmission rate thresholds. Third, based on our model we propose a new mechanism for reliability and a new converge-cast strategy that outperforms WBAN dedicated strategies but also strategies adapted from DTN and WSN areas. Our extensive performance evaluations use essential parameters for WBAN: packet lost, total order reliability (messages sent in a specific order should be delivered in that specific order) and various human body postures. In particular, our strategy ensures zero packet order inversions for various transmission rates and mobility postures. Interestingly, our strategy respects this property without the need of additional energy-guzzler mechanisms.
