Abstract
In this paper we aim to present the Body Area Network (BAN) channels simulation using the PyLayers physical simulation platform based on graph based ray tracing techniques and a simulation results comparison with measurements. In this work, different BAN channels, for instance, on-body and off-body are simulated in a walking scenarios in indoor environment for motion capture and group navigation applications. The simulated channels results are then compared to measured results carried out and shared by the NICTA laboratory.
