Abstract: low-power, ultra-slim, light in weight, intelligent devices are the result of recent advances in technology. Wireless Body Area Network (WBAN) is a replacement technology that can be used to incorporate these devices & thereby provide health monitoring applications in healthcare. Further development of wireless communications in recent years has led to the use of sensing element networks, which are low priced. These networks have a wide variety of applications. Various technical problems in these application areas are being resolved by researchers across the world. These sensing component networks play a significant role in healthcare. These networks have deep roots in various sectors viz; engineering, medicine& science & can show good performance even in harsh climatic conditions. Therefore, this paper provides an associated degree of exposure for the analysis and applications of wireless body area networks (WBAN’s), and body sensor networks (BSN’s). Apart from it, it addresses a wide variety of challenges in these technologies.
