Abstract :
In this paper, we developed an analytical model of vertically polarized on-body propagation to describe the body scattering interference to the on-body channels. The 3-D dimension scattering from the trunk and arms by a point source are considered. Measurements results in an anechoic chamber at 2.45 GHz are also presented to validate the model.
