Centralized Inter-Network Resource Allocation Scheme in Wireless Body Area Network

In this paper, a centralized inter-network resource allocation scheme is proposed aiming at the inter-network interference problem in Wireless Body Area Networks (WBAN). To achieve the goal, a centralized inter-network resource allocation algorithm called CRAS is proposed. Extensive simulation results show the effectiveness of CRAS in ensuring the normal communication of WBAN users and reducing allocation failure number, comparing with RAN.
