Lightweight Encryption Based Security Package For Wireless Body Area Network, Sangwon Shin
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
As the demand of individual health monitoring rose, Wireless Body Area Networks (WBAN) are becoming highly distinctive within health applications. Nowadays, WBAN is much easier to access then what it used to be. However, due to WBAN’s limitation, properly sophisticated security protocols do not exist. As WBAN devices deal with sensitive data and could be used as a threat to the owner of the data or their family, securing individual devices is highly important. Despite the importance in securing data, existing WBAN security methods are focused on providing light weight security methods. This led to most security methods for WBAN …
Microfluidic Enhanced Fabry-Perot Etalon Based Optical Biosensor For The Detection Of Biological Substances In Liquid With Refractive Index Measurement, Nezam Uddin
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
A new microfluidic optical biosensor was demonstrated for refractive index measurements with high sensitivity and accuracy in the range of few micrometers liquid channels utilizing a Fabry-Perot cavity formed between two reflective semitransparent surfaces. The transmitted light through the cavity forms interference peaks in the transmission spectrum which is dependent upon the refractive index of the fluid in the microfluidic channel. We demonstrate the biosensor using Fabry-Perot to provide high accuracy and sensitivity with real-time measurement. The sensor can resolve refractive index changes with the shift of peak wavelength of transmitted spectrum. In our Fabry- Perot etalon based biosensor, two …
