Abstract

The short-range wireless multimedia is consider used a ultra wideband (UWB) technology for human body mobile and multimedia applications shows promise for wireless multi-media systems. Based on IEEE 802.15.6, wireless body area networks (BAN) require understanding the human body’s effects on channel characteristics. This paper presents how to evaluation of human body ulra-wideband (HB-UWB) transmission with line-of-sight and non-line-of-sight scenario. Our research aims to enhance HB-UWB channel propagation on the body media by employing with CLEAN algorithm to eliminate noise. This research leverage findings from previous studies to facilitate performance comparison. Furthermore, for analyze system performance using the CLEAN algorithm at different body positions. The measurement setup covers band the FCC regulated from 3.0 GHz to 11 GHz. It includes the tested with wideband antenna and vector network analyzer (VNA). HB-UWB characteristics are shows in the path loss and power delay profile are discussed as relevant parameters. This research very useful for design and evaluation of human body mobile network and wireless multimedia systems.
