Claims

C1strongest claim

Calibration and validation against FR3 ray tracing data using the global 3D-GloBFP building dataset demonstrate that UPSim accurately reproduces empirical channel distributions.

C2weakest assumption

The assumption that deterministic visibility regions derived from shadow projection of 3D building geometry, when combined with LOS-state-specific and altitude-aware path loss plus correlated fading, sufficiently capture real propagation behavior for the target FR3 UAV scenarios without full per-position ray tracing.

C3one line summary

UPSim is a ray-tracing-calibrated semi-deterministic simulator for FR3 air-to-ground propagation in UAV networks that derives visibility from 3D maps and adds altitude-aware path loss and fading.
