Abstract :
This communication studies the path loss and shadowing between two body mounted devices at 60 GHz. The temporal fading is experimentally investigated and the Doppler spectrum is characterized and modeled. Measurements have been conducted in an anechoic chamber for both horizontal and vertical polarizations.
