This article provides a summary of the wave propagation models supported in WinProp for indoor scenarios.

An indoor scenario can be used for a single floor building to a large, complex multi-floor building, a campus or the inside of an aircraft. Furniture and people can be included by allowing attenuation to be set to specific volumes.

To model detailed buildings inside a larger urban scenario, use the combined urban/indoor scenario.
