This work focuses on the polarimetric properties of radio waves scattered off building walls. Two measurement campaigns, the first in a street canyon scenario and the second in a campus scenario, are used to validate an ad-hoc polarimetric diffuse scattering model, suitable to be embedded in Ray-Tracing (RT) prediction tools. The polarization part of the model relies on a single parameter, Kxpol, that sets the polarization coupling between the original polarization and the orthogonal one, caused by a scattering interaction. Results show that between 20% and 30% of the incident field intensity is depolarized, depending on the scenario, in accordance with what found in the experimental parametrization of the model.

Abstract
This work focuses on the polarimetric properties of radio waves scattered off building walls. Two measurement campaigns, the first in a street canyon scenario and the second in a campus scenario, are used to validate an ad-hoc polarimetric diffuse scattering model, suitable to be embedded in Ray-Tracing (RT) prediction tools. The polarization part of the model relies on a single parameter, Kxpol, that sets the polarization coupling between the original polarization and the orthogonal one, caused by a scattering interaction. Results show that between 20% and 30% of the incident field intensity is depolarized, depending on the scenario, in accordance with what found in the experimental parametrization of the model.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
