Abstract :
Empirical path loss prediction models for emerging PCS microcells in typical residential/commercial, irregular urban and high-rise urban environments are reported. Depending on the type of route, individual path loss formulas are derived for each type of environment. Performance of the path loss formulas are evaluated by the comparisons with the measurements in Salling, Denmark and the Waltisch-Bertoni model
