Abstract

A 3D model is developed for characterizing the propagation characteristics of microcellular communications. For this communication, the working frequency is about 1.7-2.0 GHz and the wavelength is about 15-18 cm. These wavelengths are comparable with the dimensions of cavities on buildings, thus, multiple reflection and diffraction might occur inside or on the surface of the cavities, rendering that reflections resemble the diffusive type, in a macroscopic perspective. In this circumstance, employing the diffusion reflection model is more efficient than specular reflection model, hence, radiosity method is employed. The radiosity equations, and the radiosity parameters and form factors, are rederived to suit the electromagnetic wave application.
