Human respiration is a vital physiological function of the body and a key metric for assessing overall health, particularly in conditions related to sleep deprivation. However, developing a real-time system for detecting sleeping position, heartbeat, and respiration is challenging yet crucial. Such a system should be easy to fabricate, comfortable to wear, and highly sensitive. In this study, we fabricated a flexible electrospun cobalt ferrite (CoFe2O4, CF) embedded polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) nanocomposite (NC) using an electrospinning technique. Additionally, we investigated the influence of varying CF content (0, 1, 3, and 5 wt%) on the crystalline β-phase in PVDF. The triboelectric nanogenerator (TENG) device was fabricated using PVDF-CF (P-CF) NC as the tribo-negative layer and non-woven fabric of thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU) as the tribo-positive layer. Among the four sample combinations used in this study, P-CF-3 (3 wt% CF in PVDF)/TPU TENG exhibited a significantly higher triboelectric open circuit voltage (Voc) of 5.8 V, nearly three times higher as compared to P-CF-0/TPU TENG (1.7 V). This work demonstrates an efficient method for enhancing the output efficacy of flexible TENG devices by varying the nanofiller concentration. Moreover, the fabricated TENG device was efficiently tested for real-time healthcare monitoring (HCM) and polysomnographic (PSG) related studies.

An important component of these devices is the wearable antenna that provides reliable and efficient wireless communication between body-worn sensors and external devices. This paper presents a novel metasurface-based wearable antenna for WBAN applications. By incorporating metasurfaces into the antenna design, achieving enhanced performance is possible. The design was tested using four flexible substrates: wool, paper, fleece, and felt. The paper substrate was chosen because of its superior performance. The dimensions of the antenna are 30 mm x 20 mm, and a 5 ×3 metasurface is used, whose unit cell comprises a square patch. Simulation and experimental results have been performed to measure the radiation pattern, return loss, and gain. A good corroboration is observed between the measured and simulated results. The antenna resonates at three frequencies and offers wide-band resonance characteristics when backed by the metasurface. The peak gain of the antenna without the metasurface was less than 4 dB, but when backed by the metasurface, the peak gain was enhanced to approximately 6 dB. Also, it has been observed that the designed antenna’s performance is not significantly affected by the radius of curvature, making it ideal for on-body measurements. This design can inspire further research on low-cost paper substrate-based antennas for WBAN applications.

Hot‐spot aware multicost‐based energy‐efficient routing protocol for WBANs

SummaryWireless body area networks (WBANs) are becoming widely considered in remote healthcare monitoring applications. However, WBAN nodes have limited resources; therefore, effective and reliable routing protocols are pivotal research challenges. Furthermore, balancing the traffic load among sensor nodes is also highly required to increase network stability. In recent years, many interesting routing solutions have been proposed for WBANs; however, the significant feature in terms of stability and energy in these solutions has not been sufficiently addressed. Therefore, in this context, the Hot‐Sspot Aaware Multicost‐based Energy‐efficient Routing (H‐SAMER) protocol is proposed in this paper. The suggested protocol used multieffective cost function for next‐hop node selection based on the data type, where the patient's data are categorized into three classes: normal data, on‐demand data, and emergency data. Furthermore, the H‐SAMER protocol adds awareness to the transmission of control packets by adding the cost value to the RREQ packets. Thus, the simulation scenario shows that the H‐SAMER saves energy 8.57%, 88%, 98%, 97%, and 100% greater than E‐HARP, EH‐RCP, CO‐LAEEBA, EECBSR, and ELR‐W, respectively. Moreover, the first node death of the proposed H‐SAMER is delayed to round number 7500, which proves H‐SAMER to be a stable and reliable effective solution for WBANs.

AbstractBiogel‐based ionic devices have emerged as versatile platforms for broad applications in wearable electronics, healthcare monitoring and bioelectronic interfaces. Electronic functions derived from fully edible natural soft materials are particularly attractive to allow low cost, green, biocompatible and biodegradable devices in biomedical areas as well as smart food package. This work presents a gummy‐inspired protein eutectogel by simply soaking gelatin hydrogels into solutions of natural deep eutectic solvent (NADES) consisting of sorbitol and citric acid to allow solvent exchange. Compared with the gelatin hydrogel, this natural eutectogel (NEG) exhibited anti‐drying and anti‐freezing performance, remarkably improved adhesiveness, room temperature degradability, as well as high mechanical toughness. The soaking conditions were investigated to tune the softness and ionic conductivity of the NEG, which revealed that the water content and acid ratio could significantly impact on the gel properties. Additionally, the eutectogel thin film exhibited good humidity sensing capability with a wide linear detection range (22%–98% RH), in which a soft patch was further demonstrated for breath test to detect various respiration frequencies. Thus, we believe the concept of NEG combining biopolymers and NADES can be explored in a broad range of soft devices for sensing, bio‐adhesives, energy supply or drug delivery.
