Abstract :
3D ray tracing produces accurate, deterministic channel models for wireless system design. Increasing a ray tracing algorithm´s ability to identify correct propagation paths reduces the kinematic errors of a simulation. A new 3D ray tracing technique is presented that reduces kinematic errors associated with ray launching algorithms
