Indoor propagation prediction and measurements within multistory building for wireless LAN applications

In recent years, the possibility of using radio for data and voice communications inside the buildings has become an attractive proposition. A prerequisite to the design of indoor radio communication systems is knowledge of indoor propagation characteristics. These characteristics can be used to det...
