Abstract :
The paper gives a survey on a variety of methods for modelling wave propagation in different mobile communication scenarios. The requirements for predicting fieldstrength level and other relevant parameters are discussed for various mobile communication networks including outdoor and indoor scenarios. Apart from well known and widely used propagation models new approaches with minimised computation time are presented.
