This work introduces a channel model simulator for multi-antenna terrestrial links. The simulator is primarily implemented for the bands of 19 and 28 GHz; however, it could also be employed in nearby mmWave frequency bands. The components that are considered include: a) line-of-sight propagation; b) ground reflection; c) clusters of scatterers; d) oxygen absorption; e) rain attenuation; and, f) Doppler shift on a moving base station (e.g. ship, train). One of the advantages of this simulator is its flexibility to use simulated as well as measured far field radiation patterns for various types of antennas and produce the channel coefficients for various scenarios.
