Abstract: In this paper, we simulate the energy consumption, throughput and reliability for both, Zigbee IEEE 802.15.4 Mac protocol and BAN IEEE 802.15.6 exploited in medical applications using Guaranteed Time Slot (GTS) and polling mechanisms by CASTALIA software. Then, we compare and analyze the simulation results. These results show that the originality of this work focuses on giving decisive factors to choose the appropriate MAC protocol in a medical context depending on the energy consumption, number of used nodes, and sensors data rates.

Keywords: Guaranteed Time Slot (GTS); polling; WBAN; IEEE 802.15.6; IEEE 802.15.4; energy consumption
