METHOD FOR CHANNEL SEARCHING IN A MEDICAL BODY AREA NETWORK

摘要

Provided is a method for channel searching for enabling a medical body area network (MBAN) terminal, which operates in an allocated frequency band, to use another frequency band. The method may comprise the steps of: receiving an identifier of a specific channel group from among a plurality of channel groups, from an MBAN coordinator in the allocated frequency band; and searching for a channel included in a channel group relating to the received identifier of the channel group in the other frequency bands. The identifier of the channel group indicates a channel group including channels that the terminal preferentially searches for in the other frequency bands.
