  • Abstract
    In this paper modelling of specific on-body channels is conducted by using three different antenna types. Our goal is to investigate antennas performance in different on-body contexts and examine antennas propagation mechanisms. For this purpose, a measurement campaign is performed. Results will be provided in terms of channel gain, slow and fast fading modelling by performing statistical analysis of received signal envelope.
