Talk:Body area network

Merge

Just merged Body Sensory Network into this article. Did a copyedit while I was at it, but there still is a lot of original research/unverified claims that need to be sorted out AIRcorn (talk) 08:11, 12 August 2010 (UTC)

Merge was reverted. Source was restored and is now being considered for deletion. Please justify existence of Body Sensor Networks as a separate article. --Kvng (talk) 12:57, 14 November 2011 (UTC)

Here is the previous discussion AIRcorn (talk) 20:07, 14 November 2011 (UTC)

Copyright

It seems to me that the 'Survey' section has been taken from a published paper (http://portal.acm.org/citation.cfm?id=1460242). Did the authors give their consent? Or, does this clash with ACM copyright policy? Fakk (talk) 07:22, 7 October 2010 (UTC)

There are a lot of papers on the survey and possible applications of WBAN. I think bod area network page should also focus on the real design of actual WBAN systems. it should cover actual applications and implementations by showing how much of the concepts projected for body area network is realistic. Apparently it is not possible to design a sensor node that can cover all the tasks assigned or projected. This is also not something medical professions want to use. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 58.107.97.206 (talk) 02:21, 12 December 2010 (UTC)

I ended up removing the survey section. Even if the authors gave permission (or wrote it themselves) it is not good form to copy paste something verbatim into an article. AIRcorn (talk) 03:36, 12 December 2010 (UTC)

A very long sentence

The article reads:

"While there is a trend toward the miniaturization of devices, in particular body area networks which consist of several miniaturized body sensor units (BSUs) together with a single body central unit (BCU), larger decimeter (tab and pad) sized smart devices still play an important role in terms of acting as a data hub or data gateway and providing a user interface to view and manage BAN applications, in-situ."

The sentence above is a good example of how not to write Wikipedia articles. So I split it into four shorter sentences:

Devices are becoming smaller, especially in body area networks. These networks include multiple small body sensor units (BSUs) and a single central unit (BCU). Despite this trend, decimeter (tab and pad) sized smart devices still play an important role. They act as data hubs or gateways and provide a user interface for viewing and managing BAN applications on the spot.

Is it more readable now? 85.193.208.36 (talk) 20:36, 20 November 2023 (UTC)

Looks better to me. Thanks! ~Kvng (talk) 03:41, 24 November 2023 (UTC)

My pleasure:-) 85.193.208.36 (talk) 04:55, 28 November 2023 (UTC)

Human Body Coupling Network

This technology has been proven to be untrue. A scientist has already disproven that data can be retrieved from human organ systems. An Islamic Scientist took it a step further to connect a person covertly to an inverted oscillator generated by a PEIZO Electric Printer that vibronicly charges a person's mattress could with a CW continuous wave to charge the body with harmful negative waves that caused Permitivity of EMF to the person all day and allows harmful chemicals to enter the body digestive, eye, ear, and lungs to produce illicit drugs. 12.152.78.114 (talk) 08:56, 23 June 2024 (UTC)
