2. Status of Frequency Allocation for the BAN(Korean Regulation)
YangMoon Yoon and SungHyup Lee KORPA (Korea Radio Promotion Agency)
I have pleasure to introduce myself.
My name is SungHyup Lee,
I’m Senior Engineer at KORPA.
I will talk about “Medium Access Control (MAC) requirements for the BAN.”

3. Purpose and Contents Contents
This document presents Korean Status of Frequency allocation for the BAN.
Contents
Status of International Frequency Allocation
Frequency Standards for the MICS
Frequency Standards for the UWB
Summary of Frequency Standards.
This document presents the MAC requirements for the BAN
The contents of my presentation consist of 6 parts.
First, I introduce the outline of MAC protocol for BAN.
Second, I explain MAC issues on BAN.
Third, I mention the relationship between BAN and WPAN
Fourth, I give an overview of MAC for WPAN.
And then, I introduce the Intra / Inter body communications.
Finally, I focus on the consideration of MAC protocol for the BAN.

In this slide, I introduce MAC protocols for WPAN.
IEEE uses the Polling-based MAC.
IEEE uses TDMA-based, contention-based, and QoS-supported MAC..
IEEE uses Contention-based MAC and WSN-specific MAC including S-MAC, T-MAC…
All MAC protocols can be used for BAN.
