Abstract
A Medical Sensing Body Area Network (MS-BAN) is designed and tested to connect with a lung-imaging sensor. The proposed MS-BAN can add wireless connectivity to a variety of other sensors. It is demonstrated that a wireless connection platform along with a RF power detector circuit can be used in conjunction with a lung-imaging sensor to provide deep tissue sensing and communication.
