Abstract

In mobile communications, the communication under various environments is increasing by the rapid spread of the number of the portable terminals. Therefore, many examinations have been reported about the outdoor propagation loss characteristic, and the propagation model and the presuming method are standardised. In this paper, a human body is assumed to be a loss dielectric cylinder, and the effect of the human bodies exist around the transmitter on the propagation loss is examined numerically by using FDTD method.
