Abstract
In the development of intrabody communication systems, the most challenging goal is to protect against noise due to other electronic devices. In this regard, it is known that fluorescent lamps using high-frequency electronic ballasts generate significant noise in electromagnetic fields. In this paper, we conduct an experiment of noise voltage received by a wearable transceiver in the presence of fluorescent lamps using high-frequency electronic ballasts, and show that the noise electric fields generated by the lamps result in a significant level of the received noise voltage.
