1. A wearable master electronic device comprising:

  • at least one sensor;

    at least one processor with a memory, the processor being coupled to a radio subsystem comprising at least one radio and configured to provide a body area network (BAN) radio function to communicate with nodes of a BAN;

    the memory comprising machine-readable instructions capable of directing the processor to identify a wearable node of the nodes of the BAN and to communicate through the BAN radio with the wearable node to receive data therefrom;

    the machine-readable instructions capable of directing the processor to process readings from the at least one sensor and readings from at least a second sensor in the wearable node to determine whether the wearable node and the wearable master electronic device are worn by a same subject;

    wherein the sensors read by the machine-readable instructions and processed to determine whether the wearable node and the wearable master electronic device include sensors selected from the group consisting of accelerometers, pulse sensors, microphones, and bioimpedance sensors.
