As growing up of elderly population, the interesting on healthcare system in normal life using W is increasing. An integrated u-healthcare service architecture with IEEE 802.11 and IEEE 802.15.4 based sensor network and code divisi(m multiple access(CDMA) public mobile telecommunication networks was designed and developed. Sensor nodes with electrocardiogram(ECG), body core temperature sensors are attached on the patients' body. The healthcare parameters are transferred to web server via CDMA mobile network or through existed LAN network. The existed LAN network is suggested to be used for continuous monitoring of patient's health status in hospital while mobile networks can be used for general purpose at home or outdoor where infra networks unavailable. This system enable healthcare personal to be able to continuously access, review, monitor and transmit the patients information whereever they are, whenever they want. And immediately check their status by using cellular phone and obtain detail information by communication with medical information server through CDMA. By using this developed integrated u-healthcare service architecture, we can monitor patients' health status for 24 hours.

In the cluster-tree network which covers wide area network and has many nodes for monitoring purpose traffic is concentrated around the sink. There are long transmit delay and high data loss due to the intensive traffic when IEEE 802.15.4 is adapted to the cluster-tree network. In this paper we propose Dynamic Channel Allocation algorithm which dynamically allocates channels to increase the channel usage and the transmission success rate. To evaluate the performance of DCA, we assumed the monitoring network that consists of a cluster-tree in which sensing data is transmitted to the sink. Analysis uses the traffic data which is generated around the sink. As a result, DCA is superior when much traffic is generated. During the experiment assuming the least amount of traffic, IEEE 802.15.4, has the minimum length of active period and 90% data transmission success rate. However DCA maintains 11.8ms of active period length and results in 98.9% data transmission success rate.

Recently, M2M (Machine to Machine) communication is possible the development of MTC (Machine Type Communication) devices becomes active. MCT devices in the form of home appliances have a low power consumption, low cost, short-range wireless communication in wireless home network. For purpose, MTC devices based on IEEE 802.15.4/Zigbee are composed in the form of cluster-tree topology, which consists of one PAN (Personal Area Network), one or other router and end of nodes. It happens that transmission delay, packet drop, and lacking data resulted from collision originated by a competition for allocating channels among MTC devices that greatly increased. At last performance of entire network can be degradated. This paper proposes that the beacon frame-based grouping algorithm using multiple channels in a MTC devices in the presence of wireless home network interference. The proposed algorithm decreases the transmission delay, dropped packet and throughput is more increase, so the proposal algorithm is more efficient than the IEEE 802.15.4/ Zigbee standard.

This paper proposes an improved superframe structure with one : N situation of the network as a target for efficiency battery and communication performance used in the existing standard IEEE 702.15.4 MAC layer. The proposed superframe transforms and adds a two structures. First, we add the proposed scheduling interval after the arrival of the beacon. Second, we change to a structure in which one of the contention access period is divided into two. The contention access period and the contention-free access period of active portion are divided according to the LQI value of the device. Through this system-level simulation written by $c{^+^+}$, as a results show that the battery consumption and transmission performance has been increased.

In this paper, a new clear channel assessment (CCA) method: cascaded-CCA, is proposed. The primary motivation for the proposed approach is to integrate the respective advantages of two standard CCA mechanisms, energy detect and preamble detect, to arrive at a new dual threshold CCA family that can provide greater flexibility towards tuning MAC performance. Cascaded-CCA integrates energy efficiency of the energy detector (ED) and the reliability of the preamble detector (PD). The probability of detection/false alarm and power consumption of cascaded-CCA in the CCA modules of IEEE 802.11b are analyzed and compared with ED and PD as an example. The performance of cascaded-CCA is explored via MATLAB simulations that implement the CCA modules and medium access control (MAC) protocol for IEEE 802.11 and IEEE 802.15.4. Simulation results showed that cascaded-CCA improves the energy efficiency significantly compared to ED-only or PD-only CCA. In addition, ED, PD, and cascaded CCA are applied to a cognitive network scenario to validate the effectiveness of the proposed cascaded-CCA.

This paper is seeing as one big cause that reduce Life Time of sensor node become soft if BackOff Time is prolonged in CDMA/CA of competition way that consist at data transmission of each sensor nodes base sensor network environment. So solution method uses GTS, wish to reduce competition Node's, and minimise data transmission delay.

This paper proposes a dynamic timeout scheduling for energy efficient and accurate aggregation by analyzing the single hop delay in wireless sensor networks based on IEEE 802.15.4. The proposed scheme dynamically configures the timeout value depending on both the number of nodes sharing a channel and the type of wireless media, with considering the results of delay analysis of the single hop delay. The timeout of proposed scheme is much smaller than the maximum single hop delay which is used as the timeout of traditional data aggregation schemes. Therefore the proposed scheme considerably reduces the energy consumption of idle monitoring for waiting messages. Also, the proposed scheme maintains the data accuracy by guaranteeing the reception ratio required by the sensor network applications. Extensive simulation has revealed that proposed scheme enhances energy consumption by 30% with maintaining data accuracy, as compared with the TAG data aggregation.
