Abstract
This paper presents the first attempt to provide analytical models of BAN channels including the body morphology. Studied transmissions are along curved parts like waist or head. An accurate model is derived from diffraction theory used in the prediction of the surface wave attenuation on curved surfaces. The validity of the model is first confirmed with simulations and a set of measurements is then presented.
