Abstract
Distribution of electric field strength inside a building where rooms and residents are assumed is analyzed by measurements and FVTD simulations. This study has been conducted since it became a well-known fact that existence of concrete walls and people affects performance of indoor communication devices such as mobile phones and RFID. In this paper, how residents effect distribution of electric field strength inside the building having many rooms is analyzed. Comparing the results obtained by using the analytical model where residents are assumed and no resident is assumed, the electric field strength inside the model in which there are persons are higher close to the source point and lower at far from the source point than that inside the model in which there is no person.
