Abstract

In this paper, indoor DTV signal reception has been investigated under four different circumstances. Simulation results show that both window location and the presence of conductor-backed insulation in a house could cause a more than 35 dB fluctuation in the signal-to-noise ratio presented to the DTV receiver. Although the effects from window location could be mitigated in the real world environment (because of multipath propagation), the presence of conductor-backed insulation could significantly degrade the signal reception inside the house. A more detailed investigation of indoor DTV signal reception, such as the incorporation of metallic water pipes and actual DTV antennas in the simulation, and field measurements is currently in progress.
