Prediction system for RF power distribution
First Claim
1. A method for simulating RF energy distribution comprising:
- a) obtaining a binary tree representation of a geometric environment in three-dimensions and forming a 3-D geometric database model therefrom;
b) obtaining one or more specified receive locations within said 3-D geometric database model where RF energy distribution is desirable;

Abstract
A method for simulating RF energy distribution comprises obtaining a binary tree representation of a geometric environment in three-dimensions and forming a 3-D geometric database model therefrom, obtaining one or more specified receive locations within the 3-D geometric database model where RF energy distribution is desirable, simulating the propagation of an RF signal within the geometric database model, the RF signal being represented as a beam having magnitude and direction, the propagation including querying the database model to trace the beam in the geometric environment; and, determining one or more intersections of the traced beam with one or more receive locations to determine RF energy distribution at the receive locations.
