Application of of Ray Tracing Technique into S-UTD-CH Model

Abstract

To make higher accuracy predictions having less computation complexity, lower computation time, a lot of electromagnetic wave propagation models are developed. These models are classified into two classes, ray tracing based and numerical models. Computation complexity, computation time and accuracy of prediction of numerical model are high. On the contrary, computation complexity and computation time of ray tracing based model is lower. There is a tradeoff between computation time and accuracy. To predict the relative path loss at the receiver accurately, all ray paths have to be determined. In this study, after giving some brief information about some ray tracing based propagation models ray tracing software will be explained.
