Abstract

This paper investigates the electromagnetic (EM) distribution in a human model irradiated by an incident EM plane wave. A planar inhomogeneous structure is used for modeling human tissue. Moreover, the steady-state EM distribution is calculated by solving the Differential and Integral Equations (DIE) by using the Method of Moments (MoM). The obtained results demonstrate the great of performing a theoretical analysis for Path Loss (PL) estimation. For the different examined conditions, an excellent agreement with the recent results, and the Finite Element (FEM), and MoM methods are verified to be valid in this investigation. It is found that the distribution of the field and the PL for different communication scenarios are very useful for estimating the quality of communication for implant communication.
