  • Abstract
    This communication studies the path gain in a new defined Near Body Zone at 4.5 GHz. Measurement are performed around a human subject to collect the received power in three half circular sectors extending from 5 to 35 cm from the body surface. A linear path gain model is derived and discussed.
