  • Abstract
    This paper presents measurement results in a general electromagnetic environment to evaluate use of the human body as an antenna in energy harvesting technology. Voltage received by an antenna operation of the human body was measured in an outdoor environment. More accurate model of the receiving voltage is also presented to estimate harvesting energy that can be obtained by using the human body as an antenna.
