Title :
An imputation technique for missing data in propagation measurements

Abstract :
The authors presented a method to improve the distribution estimation and to reduce the impact of missing received signal strength values. This method could improve the robustness of RF propagation measurements and modeling. For example, the model could be useful to obtain accurate received signal fingerprint, in turn making more accurate localization possible.
