Abstract

In this paper, we performed six human movement simulation by a commercial software (Poser7). We performed FDTD simulations for body area network propagation with one transmitter and six receivers. Received amplitudes were calculated for every time frame of 1/30s interval. We also demonstrated a polarization diversity effectiveness for dynamic wearable body area network propagation.
