The intra-body communication can be used to establish a secure communication channel, providing the simplicity and the security. Although the communication distance is limited within a body-area, it is useful on the construction of personal area network. In this paper, we introduce our prototype intra-body communication modem implemented on an FPGA, along with ARM Cortex M0 processor. Experimental results demonstrate the feasibility of our intra-body communication modem for establishing a secure network.
