            Abstract : 
We consider an angular distribution for modeling the local scattering in the vicinity of the receiver or the transmitter. The Gaussian spatial distribution is extended to capture the correlation between the x-coordinate and the y-coordinate, which gives rise to a generalization to the uncorrelated Gaussian spatial distribution. The probability density function of the correlated Gaussian spatial distribution for the azimuth angle is derived as a closed form. Numerical examples are conducted to illustrate the effects of the correlation coefficient on the distribution.
