A WBAN efficient energy-saving routing scheme utilizing temporary nodes

In order to optimize network route and lengthen the network lifetime,a WBAN efficient energy-saving routing scheme utilizing temporary nodes is proposed in this paper.According to the practical circumstances of the application in human body of WBAN,this scheme can optimize the network route,balance the energy cost,and extend the network lifetime by full using of the surplus energy of temporary nodes.Both the theoretical analysis and simulation results show that the proposed scheme can effectively balance the energy cost of network and significantly lengthen network lifetime.
