Abstract :
The data obtained from a series of wideband directional measurements performed in an urban area in a microcell scenario is analyzed. We try to estimate the dominant scatterer objects in the propagation channel comparing the data obtained from experiment and accurate map of the area which includes all present objects. Results show that all metallic objects in the transmitter and receiver vicinity have a significant impact on the propagation channel.
