Abstract :
In this work a single simulation is used to predict the coverage within a selected area around the receiving position. The model is based on the image theory, and it uses the complex amplitude, the angle of arrival and diffraction parameters to reconstruct the electric field in an area around the simulation point. Results in a microcell for a 100 m 2 area are presented. The main advantage of this model is its computational cost, which is very low
