On the antenna array gain in geometrical ray based stochastic channel models

Geometrical ray based stochastic channel models are popular and efficient tools to predict and estimate the potential performance of wireless systems given some system inputs, such as baseband precoding and decoding capabilities, bandwidths, antenna element designs and antenna array configurations. It has been identified though that the modeling of the electromagnetic effects of antenna array gain may lead to inaccurate results. In this article we introduce array gain normalization of the H-matrix link and analyze the results with the channel model.
