Title
Propagation Path Loss and Materials Insertion Loss in Indoor Environment at WiMAX Band of 3.3 to 3.6 GHz
Abstract
The purpose of this study is to characterize the indoor channel for IEEE 802.16 (WiMAX) at 3.3–3.6 GHz frequency. This work presents a channel model based on measurements conducted in commonly found scenarios in buildings. These scenarios include closed corridor, wide corridor and semi open corridor. Path loss equations are determined using log-distance path loss model and a Rayleigh multipath induced fading, Normal multipath induced fading or a combination of both. A numerical analysis of measurements in each scenario was conducted and the study determined equations that describe path loss for each scenario. Propagation loss is given for 300 MHz bandwidth. This work also represents the insertion loss of different materials and the obstruction loss due the existence of human beings between the transmitting antenna and the receiving one.
