  • Abstract
    In this paper, the electric field distribution of the human body with the wearable device using the human body as a transmission channel was discussed. For the calculation, the realistic high resolution whole-body model of Japanese adult male and female with average height and weight is used. As a result, most part of the electric field is concentrated around the tip of the arm, so the transmission system using the human body as a transmission channel has advantage for the practical use. Because one of the merits of this system is that data can be exchanged by our daily natural actions, such as simply touching the receiver, and the user can be clearly aware of connection
