Title
Hand Palm Local Channel Characterization For Millimeter-Wave Body-Centric Applications
Abstract
The body-centric wireless channel characterization mostly utilizes whole body models. However, localized channels for body parts consistently interacting with the wireless device have their own importance. This paper attempts to characterize the hand palm local channel through experimental measurements at three millimeter-wave frequency bands of 2728 GHz, 2930 GHz, and 3132 GHz. Five human subjects are used in this study. Net body loss is found to be 3dB for different subjects with subject-specific and varying palm shape size is found to be the primary affecting source. The repeatability of the on-body propagation measurements is found to be within 10 of variance.
