    An Efficient Heterogeneous Ring Signcryption Scheme for Wireless Body Area Networks

    Qingqing Ning, Chunhua Jin*, Zhiwei Chen, Yongliang Xu, Huaqi Lu

    Computer Systems Science and Engineering, Vol.47, No.2, pp. 2061-2078, 2023, DOI:10.32604/csse.2023.040483

    Abstract Wireless body area networks (WBANs) are an emerging technology for the real-time monitoring of physiological signals. WBANs provide a mechanism for collecting, storing, and transmitting physiological data to healthcare providers. However, the open wireless channel and limited resources of sensors bring security challenges. To ensure physiological data security, this paper provides an efficient Certificateless Public Key Infrastructure Heterogeneous Ring Signcryption (CP-HRSC) scheme, in which sensors are in a certificateless cryptosystem (CLC) environment, and the server is in a public key infrastructure (PKI) environment. CLC could solve the limitations of key escrow in identity-based cryptography (IBC) and certificate management for public… More >

    Defected Ground Structure Multiple Input-Output Antenna For Wireless Applications

    Ramya Sridhar1,*, Vijayalakshimi Patteeswaran2

    Computer Systems Science and Engineering, Vol.46, No.2, pp. 2109-2122, 2023, DOI:10.32604/csse.2023.036781

    Abstract In this paper, the investigation of a novel compact 2 × 2, 2 × 1, and 1 × 1 Ultra-Wide Band (UWB) based Multiple-Input Multiple-Output (MIMO) antenna with Defected Ground Structure (DGS) is employed. The proposed Electromagnetic Radiation Structures (ERS) is composed of multiple radiating elements. These MIMO antennas are designed and analyzed with and without DGS. The feeding is introduced by a microstrip-fed line to significantly moderate the radiating structure’s overall size, which is 60 × 40 × 1 mm. The high directivity and divergence characteristics are attained by introducing the microstrip-fed lines perpendicular to each other. And the… More >

    Triple-Band Metamaterial Inspired Antenna for Future Terahertz (THz) Applications

    Adel Y. I. Ashyap1, S. Alamri2, S. H. Dahlan1,*, Z. Z. Abidin3, M. Inam Abbasi4, Huda A. Majid2, M. R. Kamarudin1, Y. A. Al-Gumaei5, M. Hashim Dahri6

    CMC-Computers, Materials & Continua, Vol.72, No.1, pp. 1071-1087, 2022, DOI:10.32604/cmc.2022.025636

    Abstract For future healthcare in the terahertz (THz) band, a triple-band microstrip planar antenna integrated with metamaterial (MTM) based on a polyimide substrate is presented. The frequencies of operation are 500, 600, and 880 GHz. The triple-band capability is accomplished by etching metamaterial on the patch without affecting the overall antenna size. Instead of a partial ground plane, a full ground plane is used as a buffer to shield the body from back radiation emitted by the antenna. The overall dimension of the proposed antenna is 484 × 484 μm2. The antenna's performance is investigated based on different crucial factors, and excellent results are… More >

    An Energy-Efficient Mobile Agent-Based Data Aggregation Scheme for Wireless Body Area Networks

    Gulzar Mehmood1, Muhammad Zahid Khan1, Muhammad Fayaz2, Mohammad Faisal1, Haseeb Ur Rahman1, Jeonghwan Gwak3,4,5,6,*

    CMC-Computers, Materials & Continua, Vol.70, No.3, pp. 5929-5948, 2022, DOI:10.32604/cmc.2022.020546

    Abstract Due to the advancement in wireless technology and miniaturization, Wireless Body Area Networks (WBANs) have gained enormous popularity, having various applications, especially in the healthcare sector. WBANs are intrinsically resource-constrained; therefore, they have specific design and development requirements. One such highly desirable requirement is an energy-efficient and reliable Data Aggregation (DA) mechanism for WBANs. The efficient and reliable DA may ultimately push the network to operate without much human intervention and further extend the network lifetime. The conventional client-server DA paradigm becomes unsuitable and inefficient for WBANs when a large amount of data is generated in the network. Similarly, in… More >

    An Efficient Energy Aware Routing Mechanism for Wireless Body Area Networks

    Wejdan Wasel Aljaghthami*, Mohammad Haseeb Zafar, Afraa Zuhair Attiah

    CMC-Computers, Materials & Continua, Vol.70, No.1, pp. 1111-1126, 2022, DOI:10.32604/cmc.2022.019912

    Abstract The accelerated development of wireless network technology has resulted in the emergence of Wireless Body Area Network (WBAN), which is a technology commonly used in the medical field. WBAN consists of tiny sensor nodes that interconnect with each other and set in the human body to collect and transmit the patient data to the physician, to monitor the patients remotely. These nodes typically have limited battery energy that led to a shortage of network lifetime. Therefore, energy efficiency is considered one of the most demanding challenges in routing design for WBAN. Many proposed routing mechanisms in WBAN did not cover… More >

    A Novel Hybrid Clustering Based Transmission Protocol for Wireless Body Area Networks

    Neelam Sharma1,*, Harshita Chadha2, Karan Singh3, B. M. Singh4, Nitish Pathak5

    CMC-Computers, Materials & Continua, Vol.69, No.2, pp. 2459-2473, 2021, DOI:10.32604/cmc.2021.014305

    Abstract Wireless sensor networks are a collection of intelligent sensor devices that are connected to one another and have the capability to exchange information packets amongst themselves. In recent years, this field of research has become increasingly popular due to the host of useful applications it can potentially serve. A deep analysis of the concepts associated with this domain reveals that the two main problems that are to be tackled here are throughput enhancement and network security improvement. The present article takes on one of these two issues namely the throughput enhancement. For the purpose of improving network productivity, a hybrid… More >

    Black Hole and Sink Hole Attack Detection in Wireless Body Area Networks

    Rajesh Kumar Dhanaraj1, Lalitha Krishnasamy2, Oana Geman3,*, Diana Roxana Izdrui4

    CMC-Computers, Materials & Continua, Vol.68, No.2, pp. 1949-1965, 2021, DOI:10.32604/cmc.2021.015363

    Abstract In Wireless Body Area Networks (WBANs) with respect to health care, sensors are positioned inside the body of an individual to transfer sensed data to a central station periodically. The great challenges posed to healthcare WBANs are the black hole and sink hole attacks. Data from deployed sensor nodes are attracted by sink hole or black hole nodes while grabbing the shortest path. Identifying this issue is quite a challenging task as a small variation in medicine intake may result in a severe illness. This work proposes a hybrid detection framework for attacks by applying a Proportional Coinciding Score (PCS)… More >
