The dependence of single room indoor radio propagation on frequency

This work focuses on the dependence of indoor radio propagation on frequency. Indoor radio propagation measurements in terms of different frequencies and positions in a single room environment were performed. A calibration technique is developed to reduce the effect contributed by the transmitting and receiving antennas. Statistical analysis of the indoor radio propagation data are reported. Fast fading was found to be Rician-distributed and has nothing to do with frequency. The mean path loss was found to vary with frequency. A mean path loss prediction model is presented for the indoor radio channel according to the statistical analysis in this paper.
