Abstract: A steady high throughput and energy efficient wireless body area network(WBAN) is created in this paper. WBAN is quite helpful in medical health care service for early detection of human health problems. Heterogeneous sensor nodes are deployed on human body to quantify physiological parameters like blood glucose, pulse, EMG and so on. Sensor nodes data are transmitted to a sink node forwarded through intermediate nodes. The information available in the sink node can be accessed by end users for further analysis. Minimization of energy consumption by sensor nodes is one of the important parameter in the design of WBAN protocols therefore multi-bounce method of correspondence is used. In this paper a new cost function is characterized to choose a forwarder node; a node with high residual energy and least separation to sink. Residual energy parameter settles vitality utilization among the sensor node while least separation enhances successful delivery to sink. The simulation results demonstrated the proposed protocol in contrast to contemporary schemes, maximizes the packets received at the sink node i.e. the throughput of the network.
