Abstract:

Wireless channel modeling based on Ray-Tracing has been a subject of  theoretical, numerical and experimental research for many years. With the recent growth of communications systems, a detailed knowledge of the propagation characteristics of realistic environments is important for efficient deployment of communication networks. This talk will present the work carried out to develop a Ray-Tracing based simulator which will be used to study the propagation ultra-wideband signals in complex tunnel environments.

Given Neeraj's astute sense of humor, this has all the promise of  being the funniest EMPS talk this year.
