Abstract
This paper aims to propose an evaluation and a comparison of health-monitoring platforms based on wireless body area network (WBAN). We focused on the main concept behind these platforms individually as well as we classified these platforms based on the provided solutions and their main features. Important considerations in designing WBAN platforms are discussed as well. The main conclusion is that the mobility is less studied than other features then we give some perspectives about future useful platform which we intend to develop.
