Narrowband Physical Layer Design for WBAN System

This paper propose the design of PHY simulator for WBAN system in IEEE 802.15.6. Recently, WBAN system is most popular system in wireless communication. According to the technical requirement of the WBAN task group, many companies and research institutes have proposed physical layer architectures to provide fundamental technologies for the WBAN communication systems. Since there are various service scenarios for in-body or on-body applications, the physical layer proposals include UWB as well as narrowband techniques. The implemented WBAN PHY simulator (in this paper) is designed fixed point that is specified PPDU structure and modulation method in WBAN TG6. In the WBAN PHY case, the modulations method is changed by frequency band and data rate. After implementation of simulator, we are going to design WBAN for hardware implementation. We are supposed to implement architecture of a chip that has mixed mode, PSK and FSK in MICS baseband for WBAN. WBAN simulator is designed by using MATLAB.
