Wireless Energy Efficiency Evaluation for Buildings under Design Based on Analysis of Interference Gain

In this paper, we present part of our ground-breaking work that bridges building design and wireless network deployment. The original contributions lie in: i) defining interference gain (IG) as an intrinsic figure of merit (FoM) of a building’s wireless performance in terms of interference signal blockage; ii) developing analytic models to calculate IG; and iii) developing a novel method to calcul...
