Abstract:-This paper motivated us to work on an efficient node placement strategy for a BNC,
within a WBAN; and therefore we propose 3 different BNC placement algorithms considering
different options of available energy efficient routing protocols during a WBAN. In a WBAN,
network longevity is a major challenge due to the limitation of the availability of energy supply in
body nodes. Therefore, routing protocols can play a key role towards making such networks
energy efficient. In this work, we exhibit that a routing protocol together with an effective body
node coordinator (BNC) deployment strategy can influence the network lifetime eminently. Due to
advancement in the telecommunication, wireless communication, wireless sensors, and other
technologies a new field of research has been evolved and this area of research is termed as
Wireless Body Area Networks
Key Words:-Body area network (BAN), body node coordinator (BNC) deployment, energy efficiency, human body, IEEE 802.15.6, Internet of Things (IoT), node deployment, wireless body area network (WBAN).
