An Approach to Mean Path Loss Model Estimation for Off-Body Channels

Abstract

This paper presents an approach to estimation of the mean path loss model parameters in off-body Body Area Networks channels. In this approach, the path loss exponent is constrained to a value obtained for the line-of-sight (LoS) propagation in the co-polarised channel, considering a generalised static scenario. The comparison of the goodness of fit between the proposed approach and other approaches, for a set of measurements obtained in an indoor environment, indicates that a significantly better model is obtained for the LoS case, somewhat improved model for the quasi-LoS, while the goodness of fit is almost unchanged for the non-LoS case.
