Abstract

This project is produced to develop a path loss prediction model for mobile communication field due to wave propagation. For every physical entity, a radio signal encounters after it leaves the transmitting antenna affects the strength and direction of the signal. Addition to that, the degradation of mobile phone signal is due to various obstacles between base stations and mobile stations in rural and urban areas such as hills, mountains, buildings and towers. The aim of this project is to develop a path loss prediction model for mobile communication and to verify the effect of propagation path loss in mobile communication system. In order to achieve the objectives, some codings have been written using MATLAB software to obtain the propagation path loss for both rural and urban areas. A visit has been made to Telekom Malaysia to get the parameters for installation and also to predict the best model for each area. For the installation of mobile radio systems, wave propagation models are necessary to determine the propagation characteristics such as the receiver sensitivity and power transmission. In this project, ECC-33 Model and COST-231 Model are found to be the best models for each area; rural and urban.
