Transmission characteristics around human body standing on the electrode located on the floor surface for human body communication

In this study, we focused on the human body communication between an electrode located on the floor surface and a wearable electrode located on the forearm, and their transmission characteristics were investigated. As a result, the transmission characteristics S₂₁ between the electrode on the floor and that on the arm were -61.6 dB and -56.8 dB when the single or dual electrode for the wearable receiver, respectively. We confirmed that the wearable receiver with dual electrode was suitable for the better transmission.
