An improved ray‐tracing propagation prediction model for predicting path loss on single floors in indoor environments is developed. It utilizes the results of a two‐dimensional (2‐D) ray‐tracing technique to deal with a three‐dimensional (3‐D) problem. This approach is more efficient than the usual 3‐D ray‐tracing model and more accurate than the usual 2‐D ray‐tracing model. Simulation results agree well with measurement. ©1999 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. Microwave Opt Technol Lett 22: 39–41, 1999.
