Overview of Propagation Models for Mobile Communication

In this world we are all connected by Wireless Communication. We all know how mobile communication plays an important role in our day-to-day life. There are various propagation models for mobile communication. Explosive growth of mobile communication continues, it is very valuable to have the capability of determining optimum base-station locations ,obtaining suitable data rates and estimating their coverage ,without conducting a series of propagation measurement, which are very expensive and time consuming. It is therefore important to develop effective propagation models for mobile communication. Propagation or Path loss models are basically used to predict coverage area, frequency assignment and interference, which are the main concerns in cellular network planning. The path loss values compared with existing model for rural, suburban and urban areas. The propagation model tuning must optimize the model parameters in order to achieve minimal error between predicted and measur...
