            Abstract : 
In this paper, we propose a universal dual-polarisation modelling method for the simulation-based propagation models. We adopt the universal definition of dual-polarisation radiation pattern and apply the definition to model the dual-polarised propagation channel. By adopting the universal definition of dual-polarisation using the ray reference, we clarify the misunderstanding caused by the widely accepted polarisation definition using ground reference. Furthermore, we integrate the universal dual-polarised model to a simulation-based propagation model. Simulation results demonstrate the effectiveness and potential of this dual-polarisation model in the simulation-based propagation models.
