Abstract
Reflection patterns on surfaces commonly found in indoor environments are measured. The reflection model is established based on experimental data. A method of using multiple light sources to combat the power-budget problem is proposed. A simulation approach was used to optimise the uniformity of power distribution and to evaluate the delay spread of such a system. The results show that such a method can improve system performance over conventional single source systems
