Abstract :
Due to the large increase in the use of wireless technologies in indoor scenarios, it is necessary an efficient planning aim to decrease the power consumption and minimize the interference. In this work, the evaluation of received power in an indoor ZigBee scenario has been presented with the aid of in house 3D Ray Launching code, empirical simulations and a large set of measurements. The results confirm that network performance is closely related to topological characteristics of the scenario. These results are of great interest in the implementation of indoor sensor deployments.
