  • Wireless technologies, medical applications and future challenges in WBAN: a survey (2021) · Wireless Networks · cited 116× · doi

    No prior work characterizes periodic advertising protocols or response mechanisms specific to WBANs. Existing WBAN literature addresses wireless technologies, energy efficiency, and channel modeling, but does not investigate how periodic advertisement cycles with feedback responses should be designed, scheduled, or optimized for on-body sensor networks.

  • Wireless body area networks: A review of challenges, architecture, applications, technologies and interference mitigation for next-generation healthcare (2025) · Applied Computer Science · cited 1× · doi

    The interaction between periodic advertising duty cycles and energy consumption in WBANs remains unexplored. While energy efficiency is identified as a critical challenge and one study models energy consumption for on-body links, no work addresses how periodic advertisement intervals and response latencies affect overall network energy budgets.

  • Wireless body area networks: A review of challenges, architecture, applications, technologies and interference mitigation for next-generation healthcare (2025) · Applied Computer Science · cited 1× · doi

    Interference mitigation during periodic advertising and response phases in WBANs is not addressed. Prior work identifies interference dynamics as a critical gap in WBAN literature, but does not examine how periodic advertisement collisions or response contention should be managed in multi-sensor on-body deployments.

  • Experimental study on designing smart antenna sensor networks and modelling management energy consumption for intelligent systems of internet of medical things (2025) · Journal of Information and Telecommunication · cited 1× · doi

    No study investigates how human body posture and morphology affect the reliability of periodic advertising and response exchanges in WBANs. Existing work shows that path loss and channel characteristics vary significantly with body posture and size, but does not address implications for periodic protocol design or response success rates.
