This paper presents an indoor Body-to-Body narrowband channel model based on experimental data, acquired through a real-time dynamic measurement campaign at 2.45 GHz. The radio channel was investigated under different communication conditions, according to the movement performed by some human subjects and to their mutual position. Several node locations were considered, and two antenna types were used to assess the impact of their radiation characteristics on channel properties. For each investigated link, the channel power transfer function was modeled as composed by a channel gain and a small-scale fading contribution, the latter arising from the multipaths due to the environment and the human's motion. The shadowing effect of the body was also evaluated considering that the body itself can act as an obstacle to the communication, according to its spatial orientation. Every model component was characterized for each scenario, highlighting how a specific movement results in different effects on channel dynamic properties.
