Abstract
- DVB-H networks allow high data rate broadcast access for hand-held terminals. Building penetration loss measurements of a DVB-H signal at 602 MHz are performed in 100 buildings in Belgium. Buildings are categorized in different types (office buildings, apartments, villas, mansions, row houses, stations) and the rooms are classified according to the number of outside radiated walls. The cumulative distribution function of the penetration loss is determined and lognormality is investigated. Models are developed to calculate the penetration loss as a function of the number of radiated walls. Also models for apartments as a function of the floor level are developed. This research enables the calculation of indoor coverage probability for wireless networks. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
