Abstract
Results are presented of high-resolution time delay and angle-of-arrival me asurements behind a large building in an urban microcell. It is demonstrate d that in this particular case the electromagnetic field is dominated by co ntributions resulting from transmission through the building. The associate d loss over free space loss is < 30 dB. This makes clear the importance of modelling propagation through buildings surrounding the base station in the planning stage of urban microcells.
