Abstract(in English) It is necessary for an implantable medical device to transmit information between the internal and the external organs of a human body. When using a high-frequency (MHz-GHz) communication band, we need to clarify how the internal organs influence the attenuation of an electromagnetic wave. In this study, we develop a model that includes 18 types of biological tissues by referring to the numerical human body model of NICT. Further, we analyze the electric field distribution of the human body in the practical environment of these devices (for example, artificial heart, wireless capsule endoscopes, etc.) by using an electromagnetic simulator (Micro Stripes) that employs a Transmission-Line Modeling method. We examine the human body electromagnetic wave penetration characteristics of every frequency band and the safety of using the communication electric wave.
