Body-area networks

A Body-Area Network (BAN) is a network of interconnected electronic devices placed on or inside a person’s body, such as health monitors or wearable sensors. These devices communicate wirelessly, collecting and sharing data like heart rate, temperature, or activity levels to help monitor health, improve performance, or enable remote medical care. BANs are designed to be low-power, secure, and reliable, enabling seamless real-time data exchange for health management or personal convenience without hindering daily activities.
