The experiment showed that, in a quasi-static stable system, the effects of a closed palm on channel attenuation were negligibly minimal. In contrast, the physiological signal of the living body significantly interfered with the channel in the low-frequency mode. In the dynamic arm-bending experiment, we found that the attenuation variation range corresponds to the intersection angle (90∘⩽θ⩽ 180∘) of the upper arm and forearm; these results provide the basis for the establishment of a theoretical model.
