Abstract :
In this paper we propose a new Direction-specific Land use based Path loss model (DiLaP) that benefits from both approaches by utilizing the particular radio wave propagation characteristics of all land use segments that lay on the direct path between receiver and transmitter. It is intended for application to suburban/rural areas.
