AbstractNowadays, the ultra low energy consumption is the very much important challenge for medical applications. The target of this research is to reduce the energy consumption in the body sensor network as well as maximize the system lifetime of sensor nodes when they will make communication among body sensors and personal communication unit. This research work studies and analyzes the transceiver energy consumption for different compression algorithms and select the best technique like LPC for energy saving. Formulation of a linear programming problem is also the important part of this research work, where is to maximize the system lifetime which is equivalent to the time until the first node runs out of battery. Maximum system lifetimes are calculated by MA TLAB optimization technique using and without using efficient compression algorithm like LPC in various environments. The results show that maximum system lifetimes calculated in different scenarios using efficient compression technique like LPC is better than without using compression technique.
