SRT Time-Variant

Compute radio coverage in a factory hall using the standard ray tracing model.

Model Type

This model consists of rotating robots, moving vehicles, and a mobile transmitter is mounted on one of the vehicles. The vehicle is driving through the scenario.

Sites and Antennas

The transmitter is on the vehicle at a height of 1.5 m. The antenna pattern used is omnidirectional. The frequency used for the propagation is 2.4 GHz.

Computational Method

This project uses the 3D ray tracing (SRT) model (without preprocessed data) method to determine propagation paths and the received power for each receiver signal. The method considers reflections and diffraction.

Tip: Click Project > Edit Project Parameter and click the Computation tab to change the model.

Results

The results are computed for 6-time samples from 0 to 25 seconds with five-second intervals. The radio coverage in the hall with moving cars and rotating robots can be observed in the time-dependent results.
