Abstract

There is provided a communication system and method using a part of human body (30)as an antenna in a body area network, and more particularly, to a communications system and method enabling wireless communications using a low frequency band without the use of a bulky antenna in such a manner that a transmitting-side communications device (10) applies electrical signals (1) to a human body via a transmitting-side coupler to allow a part of human body to act as an antenna, and electrical signals, occurring in another part of human body (3) due to radio frequency (RF) signals, are transferred to a receiving-side communications device via a receiving-side coupler (20).

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a communication system and method using a part of a human body as an antenna in a body area network, and more particularly, to a communication system enabling wireless communication using a low frequency band without using a bulky antenna in the following manner and A method wherein a transmitting communication device applies an electrical signal to a human body via a transmitting coupler to allow one part of the human body to act as an antenna, and an electrical signal occurring in another part of the human body as a result of a radio frequency (RF) signal is delivered via a receiving coupler to Receiver communication device. Background technique [0002] Many people in modern society are accustomed to carrying portable devices such as personal digital assistants (PDAs), mobile phones, and portable medical devices. In order to transmit and receive various data between these portable devices, a network is established i...
