Spatial Channel Model for MIMO Simulations. A Ray based Simulator based on 3GPP TR 25.996 v.6.1.0

GUI supported Ray-based MIMO simulator based on work done by the 3GPP group.

The MIMO spatial channel model simulates a wireless propagation channel in various cases and applies the concept of diversity (spatial and polarization) assuming multiple antennas at both the transmitter and receiver, thus forming a Multiple Input Multiple Output antenna system.

The scope of this SCM simulator is to provide an easy-to-use, GUI supported, MATLAB developed application to any user who requires a practical tool to perform MIMO simulations and to obtain statistical data.

The options of the application include three environments (suburban macrocell,urban macrocell and urban microcell) and two cases (no polarized arrays included, polarized arrays included). Since a user's guide documents is also included, we limit our in-code comments.
