Abstract

Factors that influence the accuracy of high frequency models for indoor radio propagation at 40–60 GHz are identified and discussed. Simulation results obtained on the basis of Geometrical Optics are presented. The reliability of these results is examined by comparing them with those obtained from empirical measurements.
