Abstract
The Wireless body area network (WBAN) is now and again referred to as the physique place sensor community (BASN). It is a conversation community targeted at the human physique that uses community aspects linked with the human physique to notice and acquire imperative physiological data. As an essential branch of wireless sensor networks, wireless body area networks have received much attention in various fields because of their portable and movable characteristics. However, the problem of energy consumption is becoming more and more prominent due to the difficulty of recharging or replacing nodes. Based on the structure and characteristics of wireless body area networks, we analyze and summarize the energy-saving strategies from the physical layer, MAC layer, and network layer based on the existing research. Finally, some research ideas are proposed according to the application requirements.
