  • Abstract
    In this paper, we study an optimal topology and routing problem in the body area network (BAN). Aiming at maximizing the network lifetime, we consider the guarantee of two important quality-of-service (QoS) requirements for BAN applications: the minimum bit error rate and the minimum data rate. Especially, we study the effect of the maximum number of hops that is allowed in routing to the system performance.
