Abstract
This study deals with the characterization of propagation along the body at 60 GHz. An analytical model based on Green´s function representation is proposed for an infinitesimal dipole radiating over the surface of a multilayer structure representing skin and clothing layers. Further, the textile effect on the propagation between two open-ended waveguides along a layered structure is experimentally investigated.
