This paper presents a fading analysis for Body Area Networks off-body communications at 2.45 GHz in a passenger ferry environment. The results are based on measurements performed for dynamic scenarios in a straight metallic corridor. Two components, extracted from instantaneous system loss values, have been analysed: small- and large-scales fading, separately for each scenario. Well-known probability distribution functions have been fitted to the empirical distributions by using Goodness of Fit tests. The slow fading component is best modelled by the Lognormal Distribution, with 0 dB mean and [1.22, 2.88] dB standard deviation parameters, while the fast fading one is by the Nakagami-m Distribution with [0.78, 0.91] shape and [1.9, 2.18] scale parameters.
