Abstract
Body Area Network (BANs) is of importance for telemedicine and telehealth services. Since the wireless sensor nodes adhere to the human body surface, the human body unavoidably absorbs the electromagnetic wave which may be harmful, so investigating the specific absorption rate becomes significant in exploration of BANs. Additionally, the BAN channel is different with the common wireless channel. In this paper, we propose a method to compute SAR values in different frequency bands and provide theoretical analysis for the BAN channel. A path loss model is constructed to represent the wireless channel.
