An experiemental system-based analyis of humain body motions using embedded sensors

Wireless sensor networks technology knows a wide spread in numerous applications and fields. In this paper, a realistic IMOTE wireless sensor system is used to evaluate the on-body propagation quality in a laboratory indoor environment. Different on-body links are investigated using a set of movements and the received signal strength (RSS) parameter is evaluated. Herein the results pertaining to the belt-back and belt head channels are presented. The slow and fast fading components are separated and modeled and the results are then analyzed.
