  针对可穿戴的应用,有各种各样的传感器被评估,新的设计架构正在涌现,其目的是促进新的应用,减少系统的尺寸和重量,并延长电池寿命。

  可穿戴设计中的传感器可以从一个简单的传感器改变,它通过一个被动的无线连接连接到一个集线器设备,一直通过智能手表到一个充满不同传感和无线技术的便携包。所有这些都导致不同的传感器架构,这取决于目标应用,这反过来又是驱动模块化开发系统,可以应付可能需要的各种传感器和实现。

  加速度计和数字罗盘传感器正被用于导航,因为这些可穿戴设计是可移动的,但是这些设备也越来越多地被用作管理其他传感器的集线器。加速度计,如飞思卡尔的XTrimual MMA9553不仅用于导航,而且还用于手势控制。这允许新的应用来控制诸如智能手表之类的可穿戴系统,而不必使用小键盘或语音输入。相反,该装置的关键动作可以触发事件以进行传感器测量。

  通过将微控制器包括在传感器旁边,设备可以管理可穿戴设计中的其他传感器。这降低了硬件设计的复杂性,通过将计算负载远离中央处理器,并减少了需要使所有传感器直接连接。这又降低了整个系统的功耗,延长了电池寿命。


Current developments in nanotechnology make electromagnetic communication possible at the nanoscale for applications involving Body Sensor Networks (BSNs). This specialized branch of Wireless Sensor Networks, drawing attention from diverse fields such as engineering, medicine, biology, physics and computer science, has emerged as an important research area contributing to medical treatment, social welfare, and sports. The concept is based on the interaction of integrated nanoscale machines by means of wireless communications. One key hurdle for advancing nanocommunications is the lack of an apposite networking protocol to address the upcoming needs of the nanonetworks. Recently, some key challenges have been identified, such as nanonodes with extreme energy constraints, limited computational capabilities, Terahertz frequency bands with limited transmission range, etc., in designing protocols for wireless nanosensor networks. This work proposes an improved performance scheme of nanocommunication over Terahertz bands for wireless BSNs making it suitable for smart e-health applications. The scheme contains – a new energy-efficient forwarding routine for electromagnetic communication in wireless nanonetworks consisting of hybrid clusters with centralized scheduling; a model designed for channel behavior taking into account the aggregated impact of molecular absorption, spreading loss, and shadowing; and an energy model for energy harvesting and consumption. The outage probability is derived for both single and multilinks and extended to determine the outage capacity. The outage probability for a multilink is derived using a cooperative fusion technique at a predefined fusion node. Simulated using a Nano-Sim simulator, performance of the proposed model has been evaluated for energy efficiency, outage capacity, and outage probability. The results demonstrate the efficiency of the proposed scheme through maximized energy utilization in both single and multihop communication; multisensor fusion at the fusion node enhances the link quality of the transmission.
