Abstract

Electromagnetic (EM) wave propagation inside and along the surface of the human body is the subject of active research in the field of biomedical applications of microwaves. This research area is the basis for wireless monitoring of biological object parameters and characteristics. Solutions to the following problems are crucial for achieving the stated goals in the area of wireless monitoring: EM wave propagation inside and on-body surface. The biological object monitoring is based on a consideration of the following problems: (i) dielectric properties of a biological issue; (ii) EM wave propagation in biological medium; (iii) propagation of EM waves across the boundary of two media (biological medium–air): wave reflection and refraction; (iv) EM wave propagation in a multilayer biological medium; (v) EM wave propagation along the plane or curved surface of biological objects.
Keywords: electromagnetic wave; microwave frequency range; biological medium; wave propagation; reflection; refraction; surface wave; creeping wave; multilayered biological medium; body area networks electromagnetic wave; microwave frequency range; biological medium; wave propagation; reflection; refraction; surface wave; creeping wave; multilayered biological medium; body area networks
