Abstract:
PURPOSE: A human body communication system, medium access control bridge, bridge apparatus, and operation method thereof are provided to reinforce the stability of communication by reducing restrictions on a transmission distance between apparatuses which have two different transmission methods. CONSTITUTION: A data traffic manager receives packets from a first human body related network(S101). A connection establishment manager confirms a connection establishment state for the packet(S113). The connection establishment manager confirms the receiver address of the packet through the connection establishment state. In case the receiver address of the packet belongs to a second human body related network, the connection establishment manger transmits the packet to a second human body related network through a second communication protocol(S119,S121).
