Abstract :
In this paper, we will first review the ray-tracing algorithms developed in our group; then examples of the exploitation of geospatial data for radio propagation and its benefits will be presented. We will discuss the techniques to extract three dimensional (3D) building structures in urban propagation environment using 2D images in cyberspace. Finally, a real-time ray tracer will be briefly described.
