Abstract
WBANs (Wireless Body Area Networks) are frequently depicted as a paradigm shift in healthcare from traditional to modern E-Healthcare. The vitals of the patient signs by the sensors are highly sensitive, secret, and vulnerable to numerous adversarial attacks. Since WBANs is a real-world application of the healthcare system, it’s vital to ensure that the data acquired by the WBANs sensors is secure and not accessible to unauthorized parties or security hazards. As a result, effective signcryption security solutions are required for the WBANs’ success and widespread use. Over the last two decades, researchers have proposed a slew of signcryption security solutions to achieve this goal. The lack of a clear and unified study in terms of signcryption solutions can offer a bird’s eye view of WBANs. Based on the most recent signcryption papers, we analyzed WBAN’s communication architecture, security requirements, and the primary problems in WBANs to meet the aforementioned objectives. This survey also includes the most up to date signcryption security techniques in WBANs environments. By identifying and comparing all available signcryption techniques in the WBANs sector, the study will aid the academic community in understanding security problems and causes. The goal of this survey is to provide a comparative review of the existing signcryption security solutions and to analyze the previously indicated solution given for WBANs. A multi-criteria decision-making approach is used for a comparative examination of the existing signcryption solutions. Furthermore, the survey also highlights some of the public research issues that researchers must face to develop the security features of WBANs.

Summary
Wireless communications, distributed processing, micro-electro-mechanical systems, wireless sensor applications, and embedded systems have all contributed to a significant revolution in Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs). Medical monitoring has grown in importance as a control system that provides real-time data and communication. A WBAN is a special type of sensor network that uses the internet to connect patients with medical service providers to communicate vital health information [2]. WBANs is a critical wearable and implant network for health diagnostics, monitoring, and regulating actuators by sensing various important data from various wireless sensors (deployed in/over the body). It has several advantages, including location-independent monitoring, no effect on patients’
