Abstract

The market demand for high quality-of-service Internet/data access in indoors is increasing drastically because of the increase in the smart device users, thus leading to the requirement of high data rate support. The current technologies serve mainly in the outdoor scenarios where the presence of clutter, multipath is comparatively lesser than in indoor. Therefore, huge challenge is to satisfy users demand even in indoors, thus fulfilling the motto “anywhere, anytime” which is only possible by properly studying the nature of the propagation channel so as to mitigate the channel effect to the maximum extent with the adaptation of proper equalization technique. The aim of this paper is to access the various possibilities adapted worldwide to achieve the above goal.
