Call for Tutorial

Scope and Topics

Wearable communications and personal health management are current future trends in healthcare procedures. To accomplish this, new technologies must be developed to provide reliable measurement and communication mechanisms from the data source to medical health databases. Wireless body area networks (WBAN) are a critical component in this process. This conference aims to bring together researchers, academicians, industry professionals, and practitioners from around the world to discuss and explore the latest advancements, challenges, and future trends in the field of Wireless Body Area Networks. WBANs represent a burgeoning interdisciplinary research area that intersects wireless communication, healthcare, wearable technologies, and biomedical engineering.  [ Email workshop – [email protected] ]
