- 5. Propagation Models
Propagation Models
• Different types of environments require different propagation models
• Different databases for each propagation model
• Projects based on clutter/topographical data or vector/topographical data
• Empirical and deterministic propagation models available
• CNP used to combine different propagation environments
Types of databases
• Pixel databases (raster data)
• Topography, DEM (Digital Elevation Model)
• Clutter (land usage)
• Vector databases
• Urban Building databases (2.5D databases polygonal cylinders)
• Urban 3D databases (arbitrary roofs)
• Indoor 3D databases

- 6. Combined Scenarios (Urban Indoor)
Combined Network Planning (CNP): urban indoor
Motivation (1/2)
• Penetration into buildings
with complex structure inside
• Transmitters located inside buildings
(micro BTS, Repeater, WLAN, …)
interfering with outdoor network
Modeling whole scenario in indoor
mode?
Computational demand too high
for large scenarios!

- 7. Combined Scenarios (Urban Indoor)
Combined Network Planning (CNP): urban indoor
Motivation (2/2)
• Indoor penetration
If transmitter located outdoor
indoor walls should be considered
but two environments involved
(urban & indoor)
which propagation environment
should be used?
• Radiation from indoor transmitters and interference with
outdoor environment
If transmitter located indoor (e.g. repeater) the interference with the
outdoor environment of interest
but two environments involved (urban & indoor)
which propagation environment should be used?

- 8. Combined Scenarios (Urban Indoor)
CNP Prediction: urban indoor
• Combination of urban and indoor
prediction
• Dynamic resolution of results:
Indoor higher resolution than urban
• Automatic adaptation of parameter
settings (path loss exponents,
interaction losses,..) if a transition
between urban and indoor
environment occurs
• Multiple transition from indoor
outdoor indoor are possible to
include e.g. the indoor penetration
3D Mode

Multiple prediction layers analyzed indoor transmitter
Path finding in 3D

- 9. Combined Scenarios (Urban Indoor)
CNP Database: urban indoor
• Shape around indoor database (polygonal cylinder)
• Indoor database (with indoor walls and objects) is
imported into urban building database
• Shape of indoor database represents the building when
using the urban propagation model
• Rays are handled by using the Angular Power Delay
Profile (APDP) for the transition between the models
(includes field strength, delay time, angles of incidence)
Allows the prediction of
delay spread and impulse
response

- 10. Combined Scenarios (Urban Indoor)
CNP Database: urban indoor
• Urban database (polygonal cylinders) of
the surrounding environment can be
saved in indoor data format (i.e. as
polygonal planar objects) for CNP
database
• Indoor databases (with walls inside
buildings) can be imported into the
urban database to substitute selected
shapes of buildings by their indoor
structure
• The resulting database is saved as urban
database and the project is also handled
as urban propagation project (incl. the
(indoor walls of selected buildings)

- 11. Combined Scenarios (Urban Indoor)
CNP Prediction: urban indoor
• Rays in urban scenario reaching the shape of the indoor database are followed
in the other environment with the corresponding propagation model
• Multiple transition from indoor outdoor indoor are possible to include
e.g. the indoor penetration into a different building from an indoor transmitter
• Transition COST 231 WI COST 231 MW is possible
• Transition Urban Dominant Path Indoor Dominant Path is possible
• Transition IRT Urban COST 231 MW is possible
• Transition IRT Indoor IRT Urban is possible
• Handled in urban project
• If indoor walls at a building are detected the indoor coverage is computed with
consideration of the indoor walls
• If transmitter is located inside building and if indoor walls of this building are
available the CNP module is automatically activated
