A statistical model for radio propagation in office buildings

This paper proposes a statistical model for radio propagation in indoor office buildings, where the orientations of the reflecting surfaces are not random. The important channel parameters including PAS and PDS have been derived. Multiple angular clusters were clearly observed in the PAS profiles, which have been previously presented for similar building types. The PDS profiles exhibit an exponential distribution, which agrees well the empirical observations reported in the existing literature. It is concluded that a reasonably accurate description of propagation in buildings of this type can be obtained with the proposed model.
