Body Area Networks

DESCRIPTION

This presentation by Danny Leung explores the concept of Body Area Networks (BANs), emphasizing their applications in healthcare. It distinguishes BANs from Personal Area Networks (PANs) and details their significance in remote health monitoring, mobile service platforms, and patient care. It also covers key components of BANs, current wireless technologies like GPRS and UMTS, and addresses the security challenges associated with BAN transmissions. Featuring case studies from the MobiHealth project, this overview presents insights into the future of medical communication and further research opportunities.

  1. Body Area Networks MIE 452F Information Systems Infrastructure Focus Topic Presentation By: Danny Leung

  2. Presentation Overview • What are Body Area Networks (BANs)? • Personal Area Networks (PANs) • Definition & Domain • BAN Applications • MobiHealth Studies/Implementation • BAN & JINI • Conclusion • Further Studies

  3. Personal Area Networks • PANs • interconnection of information technology devices within the range of an individual person, typically within a range of 10 meters • WPAN – wireless • Current Developments • Innovative data delivery involving capacitively coupling picoamp currents!

  4. PANs & BANs • Body Area Networks • Subgroup of PANs • Domain: HealthCare • Compact & Mobile • Enable transfer of vital parameters • Medical Communication

  5. BAN Structure Adapted from • MobiHealth

  6. BAN Components • MBU (Mobile Base Unit) • Known as the processing centre/hub • Sensors & Actuators • Internal ( intra-BAN) Communication • External (Extra-BAN) Communication

  7. Extra-BAN Communication • Based on GPRS and UMTS technologies for wireless broadband data transfer • GPRS (2.5G) • UMTS (3G)

  8. GPRS • General Packet Radio Services • Standard for wireless communications • packet-based • runs at speeds up to 115 kilobits per second, compared with current GSM (Global System for Mobile Communications) systems' 9.6 kilobits. • supports a wide range of bandwidths

  9. UMTS • Universal Mobile Telecommunications System • deliver information at speeds up to 2Mbits/sec. • analog cellular was the first generation, digital PCS (personal communications service) the second • 3G

  10. BAN Issues • Security for BAN transmission protocol • Protection of information and control systems from unauthorized access • Fast, reliable identification and authentication • Availability & Reliability of communication resources • QoS guarantees for bandwidth, delay, and bit error rate

  11. BAN Applications • Remote Health Monitoring • MobiHealth, project at the Technical University Twente, The Netherlands • Commissioned by the European Commission (2000) • 1st live demo of BAN at the Medica International and Medical Conference and Exhibition (2002)

  12. MobiHealth • Focus on scenarios such as: • Trauma Care • Continual health monitoring • Mobile service platform

  13. Service Platform Architecture Adapted from • [Nikolay Dokovsky, Aart van Halteren, Ing Widya, ] BANip: enabling remote healthcare monitoring with Body Area NetworksInternational Workshop on scientiFic engIneering of Distributed Java applIcations 27-28 November, 2003; Luxemburg , Luxemburg

  14. MobilHealth & JINI • Dynamic discovery of services offered by a BAN • Requires RMI, so implemented according to Surrogate Architecture • BANip – an interconnect protocol • Hide complexities • Extendible to webserver technology

  16. Further Study • Currently MobiHealth deployed in 9 healthcare field trials in four European countries • Evaluate 2.5/3G wireless technologies • BANs & the development of in-body communication systems (Zarlink)
