Abstract

This paper addresses the simulation of multipath propagation on indoor radio channels. In particular, we study extremely high frequencies (60 GHz), where the common WSSUS model suffers from spatial limitations. We introduce a new approach to channel modeling. A statistical channel model is derived from a deterministic ray tracing description of the multipath situation by a tolerance analysis. Further, we show that such a model can be used for channel simulation by extending the Monte-Carlo method, which has been introduced for the simulation of WSSUS channels. An example of a 60 GHz indoor channel simulation is included
