Abstract
The increasing demand for wireless data transmission between wearable health care devices and central processing equipment has caused a consequential growth in the need for effective and reliable wireless body area network solution. The latest international standard, IEEE 802.15.6-2012 specifies the characteristics of the physical layer (PHY), multiple access control (MAC) layer, and security scheme. However, the system-level testbed gradually becomes a great challenge for the development of WBAN systems compared with other prevailing communication protocols such as Bluetooth and Zigbee. In this paper, we introduce a Software Defined Radio(SDR) based Testbed for WBAN. Benefiting from the rapid prototyping nature of the SDR platform, this testbed is shown to provide a solid testing environment for WBAN developers, as well as good testbed candidate for the future updated protocols.
