European School of Antennas Course on Body-Centric Wireless Communications 2023

European School of Antennas Course on Body-Centric Wireless Communications: From Devices, Systems to Applications.

The course addresses the main issues related to body-centric wireless communications from antennas and radio propagation prospective including measurement techniques, statistical analysis, analytical and numerical studies and system-related aspects of such communication networks. The course will introduce the current state-of-the-art and potential development in the area including challenges and theoretical limitations of applying conventional concepts at higher frequencies for 5G and beyond including Terahertz bands. Concepts such as diversity antennas, textile electronics, mm-wave systems, wideband communications, etc. will be covered in this course with relation to theoretical and practical aspects.

This course will cover:

• Fundamentals of antennas & propagation for body-centric communications
• Measurement techniques for on/off-body radio channel characterisation
• Mm-wave/THz Antennas and radio propagation for body-centric networks
• Numerical modelling techniques for antenna and propagation analysis
• Physical and digital phantoms for body-centric wireless communications
• Body-Worn RF Flexible Electronics for Medical Sensing and Communications
• Standards and real-life applications in sports, healthcare and security

The course registration will include access to state-of-the-art Antennas, EM and Terahertz Measurement and Experimental Facilities at Queen Mary University of London
