This need has led to a surge of interest in Human Body Communication (HBC), where nodes exchange messages directly through the human body as a secure and energy-efficient medium. With evidence showing that HBC can achieve up to 100× lower power consumption compared to conventional RF technologies, our research focuses on developing novel communication and networking techniques that facilitate connectivity over Polar Codebook Design for Near-Field Communication Thu, Sep 25 2025 Research wireless communication As sixth-generation (6G) wireless networks approach, leveraging the mmWave and THz bands' abundant spectrum becomes crucial, promising ultra-high data rates and enabling immersive communication experiences. This transformation, characterized by the integration of ultra-massive MIMO (UM-MIMO) systems, facilitates significant increases in throughput and capacity by utilizing densely packed antenna arrays. The resulting shift from traditional far-field communication, with its planar wavefronts, to near-field communication, where spherical wavefronts predominate, necessitates a reevaluation of
