Intra-body microwave communication through adipose tissue

Intra-body microwave communication through adipose tissue

The human body can act as a medium for the transmission of electromagnetic waves in the wireless body sensor networks context. However, there are transmission losses in biological tissues due to the presence of water and salts. This Letter focuses on lateral intra-body microwave communication throug...
