The paper deals with the possibility of data transfer, using a human body as a transfer channel. A physically separated transmitter and receiver are located in clothes on various parts of the human body. The individual parts that perform data communication between each other are referred to as Personal Area Network - PAN. This paper includes starting requirements on data communication through the human body and also actual parameters taken on the human body in the function of the transfer channel. The end of the paper describes construction of a vibration alarm device that was assembled and verified. Although this paper concentrates predominantly on military applications, the operation principle of data transfer over the human body that was used here can be directly implemented to purely civil usage.
