C. Oestges et D. Vanhoenacker-janvier, Infinitesimal diffraction model for mobile wireless communication systems, ELECTR LETT, 37(13), 2001, pp. 856-858
A new diffraction method that yields realistic simulations of the mobile ch
annel in built-up areas is presented. The new model, using UTD-based edge e
quivalent currents, allows for integrating the finite dimension of building
wedges in the field estimation, A comparison with 1.6GHz experimental data
shows good agreement in terms of level-crossing rate, in contrast to resul
ts obtained with the basic UTD.
