Abstract

A preliminary model is proposed based on electromagnetic theory for the idealized cases of a small office and a large open area office environment. The model can predict the signal intensity, standing wave patterns, multipath spread, and frequency selective characteristics. The model serves as a first step toward the development of more complete models which take more details of the indoor environment into account
