Impact of antenna pattern and reflective environment on 60 GHz indoor radio channel characteristics

In this letter, it is demonstrated that the dominant multipath radio waves predicted with simple ray tracing show a good match in the time domain with those obtained from complex impulse response measurements along outdoor trajectories. By combining the measured intensities and delays of these dominant multipath components with their angles-of-arrival and angles-of-departure obtained from the ray tracer, good wideband directional channel realizations can be derived
