摘要
Population of the world is growing at rapid pace. It is becoming difficult to provide healthcare facilities to people in highly populous countries like China and India. One way to solve this problem is the development of medical infrastructure in the form of wireless Body Area Networks. The body area networks (BANs) tend to provide medical monitoring for patients. Prime concern in the BANs is the communication, which needs to be energy and bandwidth efficient. The paper presents a novel modulation format for BANs. We propose a novel idea that combines properties of continuous phase modulation and pulse position modulation techniques. The new modulation technique takes into account the Rayleigh nature of body area channel. Apart from being power efficient, the technique does not require large bandwidth.
