Abstract

Novel paradigm of medical service such as u-health service becomes the center of public attention. In u-health care area, the core technology is based on WBAN (Wireless Body Area Network). In this paper, we propose novel transmission algorithm of UWB signals based on watermarking scheme in WBAN. As watermarking sequence, Kasami sequence having good correlation property is applied. The performance of proposed scheme is analyzed in terms of detection probabilities. The results can be applied to design various applications based on WBAN.
