Abstract :
Wireless technology today are more advancement, especially technique use in communication and communication devices are likely to be closer on the more human. This research is impact of UWB Impulse radio with human body base on measurement data, this type of technology is a high-speed data transmission. To study the impact of the human body that affect the technology UWB, Using a vector network analyzer (VNA) measure and record the result. Finally, Is determined by the parameter such as path loss, power delay profile and study parameters until the model is designed to measure and test it on human body in indoor environment with using the broadband antenna in testing. This research is useful research and basic research for the network to build on the human body with high speed UWB technology in the future.
