A ray-tracing model based on the uniform theory of diffraction is briefly d
escribed. A comparison between simulation and experimental results at 12.5
and 30GHz is presented. Since measurements were carried out in winter and l
ate summer, they also highlight the effect of vegetation at these frequenci
es. Finally, the ray-tracing tool is applied to the characterisation of an
urban channel at several frequency bands.
