Abstract :
Installing a personal communications system may not be a straightforward task, since indoor coverage predictions seem to be critical and time dispersion problems may occur. Therefore, a channel sounder has been designed to assess radio channels in the 1.8-GHz band in real time. Parameters characterizing the channel for a particular system are proposed, and their relevance has been investigated and verified for a particular case. Measurements carried out in a warehouse show the importance of careful planning of the fixed stations for an indoor system
