In this article, a Hybrid Energy-Efficient Multi-Channel Communication Protocol (HEEMCCP) is proposed to mitigate and avoid inter-WBAN interference. The Dynamic Interference Avoidance Algorithm (DIAMA) reduces intra-WBAN interference and consumes less energy by dynamically adjusting the Superframe (SF) distance and restricting the number of channels to two. Rescheduling or channel switching is proposed when WBAN performance falls below tolerance using the neighborhood Sensor Node (SN) list set up using Optimum Interference Mitigation Algorithm (OIMA). The simulation results show that WBAN performance parameters such as Packet Delivery Ratio (PDR), Network Bandwidth Efficiency (NBE), Lower Energy Consumption (LEC), and End-to-End Delay (EED) and Energy Residual (ER) are decreased. The system throughput improved significantly up to 60% in high-interference situations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Keywords:&nbsp;WBANs, Energy Consumption, PDR, Multi-channel MAC, Inference Detection and Avoidance, End-to-End Delay<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:2rem\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-tkuwpbs5-bs5-div ref_ol\" data-aos=\"normal\">\n<ol>\n<li>[1] B.
