| Summary: | In mobile communication system, 4G LTE coverage range is one of the crucial factors that have an effect on the quality of broadband access services. The first step in planning and designing cellular mobile systems is to predict and determine the path loss that suitable for certain environments. This paper focus on the comprehensive study of propagation path loss models in 4G LTE and WiMAX for urban and suburban regions. Simulation process was performed using MATLAB for three selected propagation model such as Cost-231 Hata model, Stanford University Interim (SUI) model and Ericsson model. Two carrier frequency, 1800MHz (1.8GHZ) and 2300MHz (2.3GHz) which are the operating frequency for Malaysian 4G service provider and a variation of distances in the range of 1 to 10 km were selected in the simulation process. SUI model shows the lowest path lost in both terrains while Cost-231 Hata and Ericsson model illustrates highest path loss. Therefore, SUI model is suitable to be implemented for 4G LTE and WiMAX system. |
