In this paper, an indoor propagation model based on 3d ray tracing is presented for wireless communications. In case of indoor propagation models, various radio propagation paths such as wall-transmitted wave and scattered wave from ceilings, pillars, and furnitures arises and 3-D formulation is needed. To accommodate such scatterers, objects are modeled by triangulated surfaces and ray tubes using those surfaces are introduced and efficient calculation methods using the tubes are presented.
