A proper design and analysis of future wideband wireless communication systems require an accurate radio channel model.

A high level of agreement between predicted results and measured ones is observed in the verification. The spatio-temporal channel impulse response (CIR) predicted from ray tracing is also transformed to have limited band-width and limited beam-width characteristics.
