Scenario 3: MS is affixed on each bed. MS has more energy resources which makes it a powerful device as compared to body sensors and body relays. The placement of MS helps the body relay to consume less energy, as body relay transmits data over shorter distance. However, this scenario increases the propagation delay. Communication flow is body sensors → body relay → MS → sink
