Abstract :
The paper describes a method to determine the error in two Monte Carlo based raytracing algorithms used to compute the impulse response on infrared (IR) wireless indoor channels. The equations for calculation of this error are given and several results concerning the error estimation are reported, which verify the reliability of the equations.
