Abstract
In the current scenario path loss, coverage and capacity by operating network under fading condition is research challenge. In this paper, signal strength of long term evolution network operating at 1.8 GHz is recorded for analysis. During the measurement, the range of received signal strength varies in between − 72 and − 104 dBm for basement data transmission. The variation of received signal at 12 distinct points in the basement was marked sincerely. Based on this received signal the link budget is formulated and presented. The capacity of a network on given link budget is calculated and verified. The data recorded for such environment using spectrum analyzer and simulating with Matlab is presented. The behaviour of signal referred to a value of path loss exponent i.e. 4.55. The path loss exponent provides the real coverage under urban area in fading condition. Using different models of prediction, real path loss under fading is calculated and based upon this path loss value a model is proposed for next generation networks.
