Those flat roofed, stone built, multi floor buildings are very common, not only in Palestine, but probably in vast areas in the Middle East region. The goal is to come up with a relatively general model that would be both reliable and representative to a wider sample of multi-floor buildings, falling under a similar building structure classification. The improved model; we name the AMATA model, lends itself to its generalization for the GSM and wireless LAN frequencies as well as the developed multiwall effective attenuation fourth power nonlinear equation that solely relies on the number of wall separations within the floor. A clear improvement in the standard deviation of the mean path loss resulted in comparison to the well known indoor ITU path loss model. Our model can be applied with a high confidence level to the wider range of buildings similar to the classification type of the building structure sample, we conducted measurements upon.
