    Abstract

    This paper presents a novel approach to radio propagation modeling in urban areas. While the development of the approach was mainly aimed at Fixed Wireless Access scenarios, it is also suitable for mobile cellular system applications and others. The approach is based upon statistical treatment of the target area. The resulting propagation model takes into account parameters of the built-up area, such as building density, building size, building height distribution and more. Using those parameters better prediction of the propagation loss can be achieved, compared to commonly used models. The model was developed in Ben-Gurion University in a research supported by InnoWave- ECI Telecom, and it was tested by InnoWave's network planning department, using the vastly deployed MultiGain Wireless (MGW) FWA system.
