How to get the Time of Arrival data of a ray in Proman?

Hello all,

I am using the Standard Ray Tracing (SRT) functionality of Winprop. I have imported my indoor database file (.idb) into Proman and launched the raytracer to get the channel parameters like Time of Arrival, Angle of Arrival, and Angle of Departure. The output of the raytracer gives the Delay Time and Delay Spread of the rays. However, I need each ray's timestamps or the Time of Arrival (ToA) data. How can I get this data? Your inputs will be appreciated.

Thank you, in advance.

    Suppose t0 (arbitrary) is the time when the transmitter launches rays. Then Time of Arrival = t0 + Delay Time.

    Since t0 is arbitrary, you may as well set it to zero. Then Time of Arrival (of any ray) = Delay Time (of the ray).

    Maybe I misunderstand your question.
