Abstract :
Indoor radio planning tools are of increasing interests. The PixelFlow approach discussed here can easily simulate radio wave propagation. PixelFlow offers many advantages: a computation speed independent of the number of antennas and a robustness against inaccurate floor plans. However since there is no metric to quantify the accuracy and robustness of coverage prediction model, the radio engineers must interpret the results presented here.
