摘要：Wireless body area networks (WBAN) are expected to be a breakthrough technology in healthcare areas, telemedicine, and physical rehabilitation. The nature of the propagation of electromagnetic signals in complex shaped human body in the case of WBAN is expected to be very much different from that found in other environments, e.g. home, offices, streets, etc. So in order to design a high quality WBAN it is very important to examine and improve the propagation characteristics of channel models of WBAN. The aim of this paper is to provide an overview of different channel models of WBANs. The effect of channel behavior due to dynamics has been surveyed and challenges in channel modeling have been extracted.
