Extracting an electrical energy from various environmental sources, called energy harvesting (or energyscavenging), has been an issue and attracting researchers attention in energy replenish networks.Thermal energy harvesting holds a promising future for generatinga small amount of electrical power to drive partial circuits in wirelessly communicatingelectronics devices. Reducing power consumption has also become a major challenge in wireless body area network (WBAN). The reliability ofthe WBAN is greatly dependent on the life span of theenergyaware routing in networks.In this paper presented a fuzzy controller for thermal energyaware routing in WBAN.The paper concludes with performance analysis of the thermal energy harvesting aware routing, comparison of fuzzy and other traditional energy management techniques,while also looking at open research areas of thermoelectric harvesting and management for wireless body area networks.
