Abstract :
We explore the optimization and application of W.C.Y. Lee´s (1986, 1989) RF propagation model at 1900 MHz. Lee´s model has been used successfully throughout the cellular industry for macro-cellular propagation analysis with great success. Using Lee´s model at 1900 MHz would be reasonable if the same degree of accuracy could be achieved as that of cellular frequencies. We maintain that this accuracy can be achieved, as evident by our application and optimization of the Lee model at 1900 MHz
