Abstract
- The effect of textiles on propagation along the body at 60 GHz is studied. A Green's function representation is used to investigate analytically the field excited by an infinitesimal dipole over a multilayer structure representing a flat skin model and clothing. The propagation between two rectangular open-ended waveguides is studied numerically and analytically in terms of path gain. Furthermore, the effect of an air gap between the textile and phantom is considered. Results show that the presence of a textile over a skin-equivalent phantom, as well as an air gap between them, induces a typical decrease of the path gain by 2–5 dB, but it doesn't significantly affect the path gain exponent. In all considered scenarios the power decay exponent is around 3.6. [ABSTRACT FROM PUBLISHER]
