Analysis And Computer Simulation Of Pathloss In Selected Environments In Akwa Ibom State
ABSTRACT
This project work presents
pathloss analysis and computer simulation in selected environments in Akwa Ibom
State. The research work was mainly carried out in four environments namely; dense-urban,
urban, sub-urban, and non-urban environments. Measurements of pathloss were
carried out through drive test using TEMS Software. Cost 231 Hata model was
chosen as a reference model because of its peculiarity which makes it useful
for predicting signal strength in all environments. It operates with a
frequency range that extends to 2000 MHz with a signal strength prediction of
up to 10km from the transmitter to the receiver. The system acquired antenna
height requirement from 30m to 200m for the transmitter and antenna height of
1m to 10m for the receiver. Cost 231 Hata model was modified to form a new
optimized model (Omodeen). The result
shows that the optimized model was found to predict a better pathloss with RMSE
values of 2.70dB, 1.60dB, 3.12dB, 5.62dB for 2G-900MHz, 2.66dB, 2.70dB, 4.33dB,
5.08dB for 2G-1800MHz and 4.04dB, 2.43dB, 4.48dB, 6.25Db for 3G-2100MHZ
respectively. The results were compared with the recommended propagation model
and found suitable for prediction purposes.
