  • Abstract
    An implementation of an unobtrusive five-point acceleration sensing wireless body area network (WBAN) with mobile device data logging capabilities is presented, along with practical experiences on performance. Results show good communications performance in laboratory conditions. Field test performance is weaker and the reasons for this are discussed.
