Problem 4.21 l During the first month of work, you get an assignment to perform a
measurement campaign to estimate the channel path loss exponent for a new wireless product.
l You performed field measurements and collected the following data: l reference path loss: PL (d0) l Path loss measurements: PL (d1), PL (d2), …
l Using the path loss exponent model, find an expression for the optimum value of the path loss exponent n, which minimizes the mean square error between measurements and the model.
l Hint: the optimum value of n should minimize the mean square error (MSE) between your predicted path loss and measured path loss.

Outdoor Propagation Models
l Durkin’s model l Considering the nature of propagation over irregular
terrain and losses caused by obstacles in a radio path l Typically used for the design of modern wireless
systems l Durkin path loss simulator
l Non-LOS l LOS, but with inadequate first Fresnel-zone clearance
l Shortcomings l Does not consider man-made structures l Does not consider multipath

Outdoor Propagation Models
l Okumura model l One of the most widely used models in urban areas l Frequency range: 150 MHz ~ 1920 MHz l Distance: 1km ~ 100 km l Station antenna heights: 30m ~ 1000m l Wholly based on measured data and does not provide
any analytical explanation l Shortcomings
l Slow response to rapid changes in terrain

Indoor Propagation Models
l Differ from the traditional mobile radio channels l The distance covered are much smaller l The variability of the environment is much greater l Relatively new research field
l Partition losses (same floor) l Hard partition: partitions are formed as part of the
building structure l Soft partition: partitions may be moved and do not
span to the ceiling
