Abstract
Outdoor-to-Indoor propagation loss has been measured in four buildings in urban microcells. The
results of the performed experiment as well as those of several other authors, are compared with
COST231 model prediction and postulates are presented for improved coverage estimation in buildings
with LOS illumination- an empirical equation for loss in the externally illuminated wall at perpendicular
penetration is presented, heterogeneous building surface is fictitiously divided into multiple segments,
and paths through NLOS surfaces are also considered for reception points located deep inside the
building. It is shown that the proposed enhancements improve the COST231 model estimation error by
approximately 3 dB.
