Abstract :
This paper looks at measurements of some indoor materials at 60 GHz and uses measurements to improve the accuracy of ray-tracing simulation for the prediction of indoor propagation. The calibrated simulation is used to help predict the link loss between devices randomly placed in a typical room scenario with various antenna configurations.
