Lab 05

The document describes a lab report on implementing indoor propagation models in MATLAB. It examines how signal strength is affected by distance from the source within indoor environments over one or multiple floors. Models accounting for factors like reflections, diffraction, and obstacles are explored. The results show higher attenuation with increasing distance and floors consistent with propagation theory.

Title: Implementation of indoor Propagation Model

Description: Indoor propagation models are crucial tools in designing and optimizing wireless
communication systems within buildings. These models, which include empirical, geometric, statistical,
and hybrid approaches, predict how electromagnetic waves propagate indoors, considering factors like
reflection, diffraction, absorption, and scattering. Empirical models, derived from real-world
measurements, offer accuracy within specific environments. Geometric models, such as ray-tracing
techniques, simulate wave propagation paths but require significant computation. Statistical models,
like the log-normal shadowing model, account for signal variability due to obstacles. Hybrid models
combine elements to balance accuracy and efficiency. Channel models tailored to specific applications,
like indoor positioning or wireless sensor networks, provide further insights. The choice of model
depends on accuracy needs, computational resources, and the complexity of the indoor environment or
application.

Discussion:

In the tasks, we plotted three figures, each depicting one kind of equation. The first figure is for single
floor. Here we can see that the loss is lower than other figures. While in the second graph we took two
floors, here te attenuation is greater than before. While in third case we had the highest attenuation
value. This data is consistent with the concept learnt in the theory.

Conclusion:

This lab was focused on examining the impact of distance on indoor propagation model, offering
insights into the behavior of electromagnetic wave propagation within confined spaces. By
concentrating solely on the distance factor, we gained valuable understanding of how signal strength
and quality vary as wireless communication devices move farther away from their source within indoor
environments. We explored the nuances of signal propagation, recognizing the importance of selecting
models tailored to the specific requirements of indoor scenarios.
