Summary:
Recently, a high-power wireless LAN access point (AP) based on IEEE802.11n/ac standard with a high-speed data transmission rate of more than 300 Mbps has been developed. Using this AP makes it possible to build easily wireless networks including a few floors in the adjacent as well as many rooms in the same floor. This paper discusses indoor propagation characteristics including received signal strength indicators (RSSI) and channel modeling in the office environment based on a large-scale numerical electromagnetic simulations. A precise numerical model is developed for the simulation at 5 GHz frequency band. As a result, we confirm the validity of numerical simulation and propose an estimation method of RSSI and indoor channel model. The manner is useful to design number of access points as well as their locations for building wireless networks.
