The complex permittivity of the human skin has been measured in vivo in the 10-60 GHz range using a recently developed coaxial slim probe. The results are compared with the literature data at millimetre waves, and a broad-band Cole-Cole model is proposed for several locations on the arm, namely at the palm, wrist, and forearm. This reported study provides relevant data required for studying interactions between emerging body-centric wireless millimetre-wave technologies and the human body. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
