Indoor Prediction Models

Prediction Models for Indoor Scenarios

Application


WinProp's indoor propagation engine is a very flexible propagation engine. It is not limited to scenarios inside buildings.


The 3D vector database allows the definition of various scenarios:

  • buildings (rigorous 3D, i.e. incl. multiple floors)
  • campus areas (with multiple buildings)
  • tunnels
  • vehicles
  • ....
The propagation models are able to predict the signals on multiple planes - each plane with arbitrary orientation in space.

Propagation Models


Phenomena like multi-path propagation, reflection, diffraction and shadowing have a significant influence on the received power. So the propagation models should consider these phenomena to obtain accurate results.

WinProp offers a wide variety of propagation models for indoor scenarios.
