1. A method of determining preferable conditions for Medium Access Control, MAC, communication within a Wireless Body Area Network, WBAN, having a hub node and a peripheral node, the method comprising:

  • determining that a motion sensor is moving periodically;

    creating a motion profile by recording a signal produced by the motion sensor as it moves periodically;

    creating a channel quality profile based on an assessment of channel quality between the nodes of the WBAN as the motion sensor moves periodically; and

    determining, based on the channel quality profile, a point in the motion profile for wirelessly communicating between the nodes.
