| Abstract | Abstract—We demonstrate that in indoor radio propagation modeling, the presence of the human body may be approximated by a conducting circular cylinder at microwave frequencies. Therefore, a perfect tool such as the uniform theory of diffraction may be used to predict the diffracted field over a smooth circular surface. To validate the model, vertically and horizontally polarized continuous wave (CW) measurements were performed at 10.5 GHz between two fixed terminals inside a room along with the presence of an obstacle (person or metallic cylinder) moving along predetermined parallel and perpendicularly crossing paths with respect to the line-of-sight direction. Results indicate that there is a strong corre-lation between the effects of the human body and those of a conducting circular cylinder. The simulation results successfully agree with the CW experimental measurements. Index Terms—Human body modeling, indoor radio propagation, ob-struction, polarization, uniform theory of diffraction (UTD). I. |
