Outage probabilities for B _{T h} =−118 dB and B _{T h} =−124 dB. Outage probabilities for two specific system implementations which lead to gain thresholds of B_Th=−118 dB and B_Th=−124 dB (upper bar chart: −118 dB, lower bar chart: −124 dB): The outage probabilities of the backward link are plotted for all four on-body links and for all four antenna configurations (900 MHz and 2.45 GHz monopoles, 900 MHz and 2.45 GHz patches). The allowed outage probabilities are 10% for all on-body RFID system implementations.
