| Summary: | Path loss models are crucial in the planning of wireless network as they assist in interference
estimations, frequency assignments and evaluation of cell parameters. This paper reports measurement results
of the propagation path loss in four locations in the suburban area of Kuala Lumpur. The measured path loss
at each location is extracted from the data and compared with the corresponding results obtained from the six
models: Log-normal shadowing, Lee model, Stanford University Interim model (SUI), COST231 Hata model,
Egli model and the Electronic Communication Committee (ECC)-33. The measured results show that the SUI and
the log-normal models give in general a better prediction and can be used to estimate path loss for prediction
of mobile coverage in a microcell in Malaysia.
