Abstract
This paper investigates the receptive properties of the human body of emitted electromagnetic waves as part of an investigation into the possibility of energy harvesting from the electromagnetic waves using the human body. Voltages received as the human body functions as an antenna were measured and compared with simulation results. The received voltages in a general electromagnetic environment were also estimated.
