Using WaveFarer Radar Simulation Software to Predict How Waves Propagate in an Indoor Environment

Publications

In this article, the author utilizes the PO solver available in Remcom's WaveFarer® radar simulation tool to simulate back-scatter from the chest of an animated human model and compare the predictions against 28.5 GHz measurements collected by the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST).

Human blockage at millimeter-wave frequencies is most commonly modeled through Knife-Edge Diffraction (KED) from the edges of the body shaped as a vertical strip. Although extensively validated in controlled laboratory experiments, the model does not scale to realistic 3D scenarios with many, randomly oriented bodies, on which multipath signals can be incident from any direction, not just normal to the strip. To address this, in this article we investigate computational electromagnetic methods based on raytracing.
