          In this paper, we have investigated some of the most recent energy efficient routing protocols for wireless body area networks. This technology has seen advancements in recent times where wireless sensors are injected in the human body to sense and measure body parameters like temperature, heartbeat and glucose level. These tiny wireless sensors gather body data information and send it over a wireless network to the base station. The data measurements are examined by the doctor or   physician and the suitable cure is suggested. The whole communication is done through routing protocols in a network environment. Routing protocol consumes energy while helping non-stop communication in a wireless environment. Because of the very tiny size, energy consumption matters a lot. We have focused on the protocols, which provide energy efficiency and improve network lifetime, through put and minimal path loss. We will be discussing some of the most recent energy efficient routing protocols in this paper; later their comparison with an appropriate table is presented. In addition, recent challenges, possible application and perspectives are discussed.

Improved Algorithm

Wireless sensors network has been widely used in a real-time monitor, percept or gather physical information such as light, temperature, humidity, noise or Concentration of harmful gas. With its simple and efficient characteristics, Ant colony algorithm has been widely used in WSN rout. An energy efficient rout algorithm based on ant was shown in this article, in which an energy-related descending parameter was used. The improved algorithm avoids excessive repetition use in the network link, in order to use the network energy effectively, and at the same time transmission rate is also guaranteed.
