Explanation
The Rayce ray tracing model is a propagation model that computes propagation paths using 3-D environment geometry 3. It is based on the shooting and bouncing rays (SBR) method, which launches rays from the transmitter and traces their reflections and diffractions until they reach the receiver or are attenuated below a threshold 4. The Rayce ray tracing model offers more accurate path searching, reflection, and diffraction energy calculation for electromagnetic wave propagation than other models, such as empirical models or deterministic models 5. It also offers higher level prediction accuracy, especially for massive MIMO systems that use beamforming techniques 6. The Rayce ray tracing model is not applicable only to C-band, but also to mmWave and other frequency bands 7.
