Abstract :
Diffusion theory is found to provide a simple yet accurate expression for the average received radio power loss indoors in non-Line-of-Sight. Agreement with extensive indoor power measurements is found at all ranges, unlike widely used power-laws. Resulting propagation loss has a large impact on the Signal-to-Interference-and Noise behavior, materially affecting conclusions on the value of cell splitting as a method of increasing wireless network capacity.
