Abstract :
A deterministic model of indoor radio propagation that uses ray tracing techniques is introduced. This model is suitable for analysing the performance of sector antenna systems in an indoor radio environment. Using this model, the effects of sectorisation of the antenna on the data rate limitations of BPSK and BPSK/DFE modems, operating in an indoor radio channel are analysed.
