Abstract
The rate of elderly people and patients is increasing day by day and they are suffering from various diseases and have become paralyzed due to delayed response to their critical health condition. To detect their movement and to monitor their physical condition, various routing protocols are proposed in the wireless sensor body network (WSBN). In this paper, we have proposed a method that uses an algorithm based on Ad hoc routing protocol to optimize the data transfer from source to destination in a wireless network route. This paper contains our experimental analysis of Dynamic Source Routing (DSR) protocol that reflects on its performance in a wireless sensor network. Simulations were done to determine the parameters, end to end delay; throughput and packet delivery ratio pertaining to DSR routing protocol which has been used to compare with two other established, proactive and reactive routing protocols namely AODV and DSDV protocols. The comparative analysis shows that the DSR routing protocol is most efficient with respect to AODV and DSDV routing protocols when detection of activities of daily living in WSBN is concerned.
