Site-specific ray generation for accurate estimation of signal power
Résumé
Ray Tracing is a propagation modelling approach that accurately estimates the signal power received by end users while taking into account the details of the environment in their vicinity. This accuracy is at the cost of high computational load and high memory consumption due to the heavy computation performed by processes such as Ray Generation. In this paper, we introduce a site-specific ray generation technique able to generate up to 1 million rays within 5 seconds and a root mean square error for bandwidth estimation within 2 Mbps. Depending on the location of the antenna and the coverage area, our technique gives the minimum possible number of rays required in order to estimate end-users' signal power received and their download bitrate.
