Millimetre-wave channel impulse response measurements and comparison with ray-tracing simulation results

The work presented in this paper focuses on the analysis of experimental data collected during a channel impulse response measurement campaign in the 40 GHz band. A comparative analysis of the impulse response power and delay parameters and the power delay profile was performed in respect to the results obtained via ray-tracing simulation, considering different models for the propagation environment. Moreover, the different model's complexity and its suitability to represent the scenario most significant characteristics are analysed, via a comparison between the simulation results and the experimental measures.
