Abstract

Intra-body Communication (IBC) is a communication technology in which human body is used as a signal transmission medium. In this paper, the theoretical analysis and FE simulation of electrostatic coupling IBC based on upper arm model have been introduced. Firstly, the incidence and reflection of electronic signal in the upper arm model were analyzed by using the theory of electromagnetic wave. Secondly, the finite-element models of electrostatic coupling IBC were developed by using the electromagnetic analysis package of ANSYS software, and then the signal attenuation of electrostatic coupling IBC were simulated under the conditions of different signal frequency, electrodes size and transmission distance. Finally, some important conclusions are deduced based on the discussion of the simulation results.
