Abstract :
This paper presents analytical results with respect to dynamic shadowing properties of BAN antennas due to the movement of the arms. Particular emphasis is placed on the identification of important parameters for designing BAN systems, such as radiation efficiency and dissipated power, which can not be obtained only by experimental approaches.
