Abstract

This paper describes a series of radio propagation tests that were carried out inside a modern office block. Measurements were taken in a corridor and in offices off the corridor of the signal strength due to a transmitter located on the same floor, either in one of the offices or in the corridor. The data was required as a test for a computer based ray optical propagation model that is being developed. The results were used to access the importance of including effects such as diffraction in the model
