Abstract
A propagation signature is introduced to summarise wideband propagation measurements. The display indicates the probability of rays occurring in a matrix of excess delay and power bins, and using a contrasting sequence of colours on a two-dimensional plot, provides a vivid visual summary of propagation conditions in a particular environment.
