Abstract
A requirement for the performance evaluation of wireless systems by means of simulations is the knowledge of the path loss between transmitters and receivers. In this paper a new indoor path loss model for large-scale attenuation is proposed. The Multi-Wall-and-Floor (MWF) model considers the nonlinear relationship between the cumulative penetration loss and the number of penetrated floors and walls. The model has been derived from ray tracing simulations in different scenarios and respective parameters are provided for 5.2 GHz. For validation purposes measurements and extensive comparisons with results found in literature have been performed. Because of the simple structure of the MWF model it is an interesting alternative to ray tracing for system simulations in indoor environments.
