Comparison of empirical propagation path loss models for mobile communications in the suburban area of Kuala Lumpur

The empirical propagation path loss models have important influence in mobile communication systems design. They become important tools in both research and industrial communities owing to their speed of implementation and their limited dependence on detailed knowledge of the terrain. The mobile ser...
