Scenario 2: four sinks are separately placed in the center of the walls. The body sensors of each patient transmit data to their respective body relay. The body relay checks for the nearest sink and communicate with it. This helps in reducing the communication distance as well as the burden over body relays in terms of utilizing their energy resources. The communication flow is body sensors → body relay → (Sink1 or Sink2 or Sink3 or Sink4)
