Channel propagation experimental measurements and simulations at 52 GHz

This paper presents a comparison of 52GHz channel propagation measurements, conducted in an outdoor scenario, with ray-tracing simulations. The simulation and the measurements both show that long range reflections from metallic structures contribute to the received multipath components. However, the diffuse multipath components which originate from rough surfaces are captured by the channel sounder are not reproduced in the simulation. Further calibration of such tools is therefore necessary prior to their application as channel prediction tools.JRC.E.2-Technology Innovation in Securit
