Abstract :
Propagation losses for the indoor radio channel at 21.6 GHz and 37.2 GHz are examined. The propagation measurements carried out are used to quantitatively present, through enveloped distribution, the effects of spatial fading, which is due to multipath propagation, and temporal fading, which is due to people moving in the building. Attenuation is given in the form of the exponent of the distance-power law
