Abstract :
A novel model for indoor wireless communication, based on a dual image and ray-shooting approach, is presented. The model, capable of improved site-specific indoor propagation prediction, considers multiple human bodies moving within the environment. In a modern office at 2.45 GHz, the combined effect of pedestrian traffic and a moving receiver causes rapid temporal fading of up to 30 dB
