The article presents the results of studies on the analysis of radio wave propagation inside the building in comparison to propagation in an unrestricted environment outside the building. During the experiment, a correction factor was defined to calculate the reliability of the network. The article describes the problem of radio wave propagation in buildings, considering the presence of walls and partitions in the building. These obstacles create a heterogeneous environment for the propagation of 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz frequency radio waves. The results of radio wave propagation significantly differ from the results of radio wave propagation in an open environment. The article studies and analyzes the influence of radio wave propagation conditions on wireless networks with antennas located at low altitude and various types of environmental conditions. It also shows experimental assessment of the influence of an inhomogeneous environment factor inside the building on additional signal attenuation for frequencies of 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz.
