While the autonomy in WSN is mostly limited by the energy consumption of the radio [1], WBAN rely on sensors whose power consumption may not be neglected. In such cases, the use of an external DSP for compression of the sensor information would enable to optimize the signal processing power efficiency, but would not help for the miniaturization and the overall low power consumption, because such parts are not optimized for low power as high-speed digital signals need to
