Abstract

A system (170) and method (300) for ray launching is provided. The system can include a transmitter (110) for successively launching a plurality of rays, and a receiver (120) for receiving transmission rays and reflection rays. A controller (141) can be included for selectively adjusting an angular spacing and eliminating rays in successive launches to focus an energy on the receiver. A method (430) of terminating rays for reducing computational complexity is provided. A method (340) for ray weighting for increasing a computational speed of ray propagation is provided. In one aspect, a quality of service (108) can be determined at the receiver based on ray propagation.
