For the development of new 5G systems to operate in bands up to 100 GHz, there is a need for accurate radio propagation models at these bands that currently are not add ressed by existing channel models developed for bands below 6 GHz. T his document presents a preliminary overview of 5G channel mode ls for bands up to 100 GHz. These have been derived based on extensive measurement and ray tracing results across a mult itude of frequencies from 6 GHz to 100 GHz, and this document describe s an initial 3D channel model which includes: 1) typical deployment scenarios for urban microcells (UMi) and urban macrocells ( UMa), and 2) a baseline model for incorporating path loss, shadow f ading, line of sight probability, penetration and blockage models for the typical scenarios. Various processing methodologies s uch as clustering and antenna decoupling algorithms are also pres ented.
