The aim of this work is to compute the attenuation that an electromagnetic wave will suffer when traversing the human body. The frequency under consideration is 4GHz, but a calculation in 1.5GHz is also provided to contrast this formulation against the results of the literature. The calculation is done considering a uniform plane wave normally incident upon the skin, which traverses the chest, reach the heart and bounces back.

Abstract

The aim of this work is to compute the attenuation that an electromagnetic wave will suffer when traversing the human body. The frequency under consideration is 4GHz, but a calculation in 1.5GHz is also provided to contrast this formulation against the results of the literature. The calculation is done considering a uniform plane wave normally incident upon the skin, which traverses the chest, reach the heart and bounces back.
