In high-density environments like stadiums and convention centers, the presence of large crowds significantly impacts Wi-Fi signal propagation.Human bodies, composed mostly of water, absorb and attenuate radio frequency (RF) signals, especially in the 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz bands commonly used by Wi-Fi.This absorption leads to reduced signal strength and potential connectivity issues during events when the venue is filled with people.

Designing a WLAN for such environments requires careful consideration of crowd density and its impact on RF signals.Strategies may include increasing the number of access points (APs), using directional antennas to focus coverage, and conducting site surveys during events to assess real-world performance.
