Summary:
Numerical analysis has been presented for a shortrange on-body channel at 94 GHz. Finite Difference Time Domain technique has been adopted to investigate the scenario. Since at higher frequency FDTD becomes computationally expensive, a parallel version of the method has been implemented in an in-house software. Path loss values have been calculated for head to shoulder link. Results are compared with measurements and commercially available software adopting a ray-based approach. A further analysis is provided for both parallel and perpendicular polarization of the source.
