You already start the project here:

Anything can block the wireless signal...

Stronger Signal (or Jammer), Line of sight, Distance, Walls (Concrete, Steel, Glass, Reflective material), etc), Microwave, Baby Monitor, Cordless (2.4ghz), Large volume of water (Aquarium or water dispenser), Electrical devices, Power line, and Radio/TV signal, Lead or aluminium foil, ... and virtually everything, even your body.
