Abstract :
There is a growing interest in providing and improving radio coverage for mobile phones and wireless LANs inside buildings. The need of such coverage appears mainly in office buildings, shopping malls, train stations where many subscribers are placed. The cost of cellular systems and also the one of indoor wireless systems depend highly on the number of base stations required to achieve the desired coverage for a given level of field strength
