Use of GIS in Radio Frequency Planning and Positioning Applications
Use of GIS in Radio Frequency Planning and Positioning Applications Victoria R. Jewell Thesis submitted to the Faculty of the Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Science in Electrical Engineering R. Michael Buehrer, Chair Peter M. Sforza Jeffrey H. Reed July 3, 2014 Blacksburg, Virginia Keywords: GIS, RF Modeling, Positioning Copyright 2014, Victoria R. Jewell Use of GIS in Radio Frequency Planning and Positioning Applications Victoria R. Jewell (ABSTRACT) GIS are geoprocessing programs that are commonly used to store and perform calculations on terrain data, maps, and other geospatial data. GIS offer the latest terrain and building data as well as tools to process this data. This thesis considers three applications of GIS data and software: a Large Scale Radio Frequency (RF) Model, a Medium Scale RF Model, and Indoor Positioning. The Large Scale RF Model estimates RF propagation using the latest terrain data supplied in GIS for frequencies ranging from 500 MHz to 5 GHz. The Medium Scale RF Model incorporates GIS building data to model WiFi systems at 2.4 GHz for a range of up to 300m. Both Models can be used by city planners and government officials, who commonly use GIS for other geospatial and geostatistical information, to plan wireless broadband systems using GIS. An Indoor Positioning Experiment is also conducted to see if apriori knowledge of a building size, location, shape, and number of floors can aid in the RF geolocation of a target indoors. The experiment shows that correction of a target to within a building's boundaries reduces the location error of the target, and the vertical error is reduced by nearly half. -

Fall 2019 Newsletter
CHEMICAL ENGINEERING NEWSLETTER Purdue Chemical Engineering Hosts Varma Memorial Symposium FALL 2019 CHARLES D. DAVIDSON Excellence Excellence at Scale SCHOOL OF CHEMICAL ENGINEERING Cost-Effective Excellence at Scale MESSAGE FROM THE HEAD The words “pinnacle of excellence at scale” continue as the hallmark of Chemical Engineering at Purdue. With over 800 undergraduate and graduate students enrolled in our School, our major moves and initiatives such as eight consecutive years of frozen tuition and enlistment of 94% of the graduating seniors as AICHE professional members, move the needle—literally and figuratively altering the trajectory of chemical engineering in the nation and the world. In this issue, we honor the memory and legacy of one man–Arvind Varma–who has done more than anyone else in the past 15 years to position Purdue Chemical Engineering to have such an impact. Highlights from the Arvind Varma Memorial Symposium and memorable moments from Arvind’s career are featured on pages 4‑8 of this newsletter. Arvind leaves a great void and will be missed by the entire Purdue Chemical Engineering community. Purdue Chemical Engineering Undergraduate Class of 2019 Graduating Seniors - 139 Sangtae "Sang" Kim Distinguished Professor Number of Women - 55 Jay and Cynthia Ihlenfeld Head of Chemical Engineering Number of Men - 84 Average Starting Salary - $76,934 As Purdue Grows, So Grows Chemical Engineering Enrollment at Purdue University's West Lafayette campus is the highest ever at 44,551 students, with 33,646 undergraduates. The Fall 2019 incoming class numbered 8,056 students, with 4,057 Indiana residents. Based on the high level of academic achievements and preparation, this year's class is Purdue's best to date. -
