Research on Propagation Characteristics of 2.4 GHz Wireless Signals in a Steel Ship Cabin

In this paper, a ship model is established to study the propagation characteristics of 2.4 GHz wireless signal in the steel cabin. The transmission effect of the signal is simulated and the received power is calculated. In particular, the delay spread characteristics of signal transmission in the cabin are analyzed. Combined with the simulated results, we can analyze the propagation characteristics of 2.4 GHz wireless signal in the ship, and put forward suggestions on the deployment of wireless sensor network (WSN) nodes in the ship, so as to optimize the signal transmission efficiency in the ship.
