Abstract

Nowadays, research on wireless body area network (WBAN) touches its extremity as the need arising more for the present mundane lifestyle of the world. Exclusive demand for WBAN is mainly due to its special properties such as its mobility, tiny size, and network topology, etc. WBAN is a specialized technology designed to monitor a remote patient (or a subject—as WBAN is not limited to human being), and it grabs attention from researchers as it is emergency-aware. Due to the nature of the WBN, the collisions among data packets are inevitable which in turn increases congestion in the network by triggering more number of retransmissions. To eradicate these issues, several congestion control (CC) algorithms are proposed in the literature. This paper surveys some of the recent CC algorithms and stretches a detailed comparative study of these algorithms. This survey reveals the strength and weakness of these algorithms and the future research direction in this research field.
