Abstract

This paper proposes a method to predict line-of-sight (LOS) path loss in buildings. We performed measurements in two different types of buildings at a frequency of 1.8 GHz and propose a new path loss model with its upper and lower bounds. The upper and lower bounds depend on max and min values of sampled path loss data. This makes our model limit path loss within the boundary lines. The model includes time-variant effects from the object movement from people in the building and cars in parking areas. These influence reasonably on wave propagation. The results have shown that the proposed model will be useful for the design of the indoor wireless communication systems.
