Wireless Sensor Networks (WSN) are an advanced communication technology. One of the unique branches of WSN is the Wireless Body Brea Network (WBAN). WBAN is in charge of the tiny sensors that are attached to or implanted within the human body to monitor critical body parameters. Today, there is a growing desire to enhance people's life expectancy. Disease identification and diagnosis have emerged as the most crucial aspects of this procedure. This includes real-time health monitoring, which leads to remote patient monitoring. In the current world, remote patient monitoring is a large study topic that necessitates patient mobility, which may also be accomplished using WBAN. This paper gives a brief introduction to WBAN, implementation of E-HARP routing protocol in MATLAB and results of implementation of this protocol for a few performance measures.

Wireless Sensor Networks (WSN) are an advanced communication technology. One of the unique branches of WSN is the Wireless Body Brea Network (WBAN). WBAN is in charge of the tiny sensors that are attached to or implanted within the human body to monitor critical body parameters. Today, there is a growing desire to enhance people's life expectancy. Disease identification and diagnosis have emerged as the most crucial aspects of this procedure. This includes real-time health monitoring, which leads to remote patient monitoring. In the current world, remote patient monitoring is a large study topic that necessitates patient mobility, which may also be accomplished using WBAN. This paper gives a brief introduction to WBAN, implementation of E-HARP routing protocol in MATLAB and results of implementation of this protocol for a few performance measures.
