Abstract
There is provided a communication method using a human body as a medium. A modulation apparatus using a frequency selective baseband according to an aspect of the invention may include: a serial-to-parallel conversion unit converting serial data supplied from an upper layer into parallel data consisting of M+1 number of data input bits; and a frequency selective spreader selecting one subgroup among a plurality of subgroups obtained by dividing 2N number (where N is a positive integer) of spreading codes used for frequency spreading by 2M (where M is a positive integer, and M<N is satisfied), and selecting and outputting one spreading code among 2M number of spreading codes of the one subgroup by using the M number of data input bits, and spreading codes obtained by performing bit circular shifts on the 2M number of spreading codes. Accordingly, the number of transmission data is increased to improve a transmission data rate, strong interference induced from users and other electronic devices is reduced, and stable human body communication having low power consumption is performed.
