Channel Impulse Response at 60 GHz and Impact of Electrical Parameters Properties on Ray Tracing Validations

This paper outlines a study of the effect of changing the electrical properties of materials when applied in the Wireless InSite (WI) ray-tracing software. The study was performed at 60 GHz in an indoor propagation environment and supported by Line of Sight (LoS) and Non-LoS measurements data. The s...
