In this letter, we examine the effect of misalignment angle on cluster-based power delay profile (PDP) modeling for a 60 GHz millimeter-wave uplink. The analysis uses real-world data, where fixed uplink scenarios are realized by placing the transmitter at ground level and the receiver at the building level. Both outdoor-to-indoor (O2I) and outdoor-to-outdoor (O2O) scenarios are studied. Using the misalignment angle and the scenario as inputs, we propose a statistical PDP simulation algorithm based on the Saleh-Valenzuela model. Different goodness-of-fit metrics reveal that our proposed algorithm is robust to both O2I and O2O scenarios and can approximate the PDPs fairly well, even in case of misalignment.
