This paper presents the multiple antennas dynamic body-to-body channel in an in- door environment by utilizing quarter-wave planar textile monopole (TM) antennas at 2.45 GHz. The single input and multiple output (SIMO) measurement system uses a signal generator and two spectrum analyzers, to generate (transmit) continuous wave and measure (receive) the S21 parameters. During each measurement, two users are positioned at a 1 m distance where several body movements are performed, such as walking, sitting, running, jumping, bending and rota- tion of arms. The measured body-to-body path loss is evaluated and characterized by fitting to five well-known statistical distributions. The results exhibit that the Lognormal distribution provided the best fit for most of multiple antenna body-to-body dynamic link path loss in most of body movements performed in the experiment.
