  3. Abstract:
  4. Wide-waisted Gaussian beam (GB) expansion and point matching methods are discussed in this study as promising techniques for the expansion of electromagnetic waves into GBs. These methods combined with the GB tracing method provide an appropriate scheme for wave propagation analysis in large-scale problems. Details of the wide-waisted GB expansion and point matching methods are provided, and their accuracy and validity regions are discussed. A combination of the aforementioned expansion and tracing methods is utilised to analyse a simple outdoor high-frequency wave propagation problem. The results are compared to the results of the well-known ray tracing method, showing good agreement
