Abstract
A wireless body area network (WBAN) has recently issued a next generation wireless technology of wireless personal area networks (WPAN) and it will provide various ubiquitous services for both medical and non-medical services. In addition, when WBANs are intelligently interworked, more smart services will be available. Although the current IEEE 802.15.6 standard recognizes only an individually organized WBAN, they should be integrated to perform large-scale services. To support the interworking of WBANs, a new network architecture and its maintenance scheme are required. In this paper, we propose a novel network architecture for supporting data routing in an individual WBAN as well as combining and splitting individual WBANs for large-scale WBAN services. I.
