For real-world performance evaluation, channel models should be accurate in reflecting a realistic behavior between transmitter and receiver. A major concern with the actual standardized channel models, is that they do not consider the time evolution and are relevant only for drop based simulations. The need for spatial consistency of these channel models has been also acknowledged by standardization bodies, e.g., 3GPP, and alternative models are under discussion. In this paper, we compare the statistics generated with the 3GPP 3D channel model to those of ray tracing simulations and validate our method to achieve spatial consistency. Moreover, we estimate the correlation parameters such that the results obtained with our method match the ray-tracing results.
