Abstract
This chapter provides an evaluation of preamble detection in the ETSI Smart Body Area Networks (SmartBAN) physical layer (PHY). The system specifications for a PHY and a media access control layer (MAC) in SmartBAN, which is a standard for medical and health care advanced by the European Telecommunications Standards Organization (ETSI), were issued in April 2015. In the PHY, the packet structure has a two-octet preamble used for timing synchronization and so on. However, the preamble detection cannot be sufficiently performed except in a very good channel condition because the preamble structure is too simple. For the reason, we propose to add a Start Frame Delimiter (SFD) to correctly detect the position of the header. Computer simulations show that preambles with SFD consisting of an orthogonal M-sequence have better performance than that of SmartBAN and so on, especially under IEEE model CM3.
