Comparative Analysis of Signal Strength in 5 LTE Networks Cell in Riobamba-Ecuador with 5 Propagation Models

Abstract:

This article analyzes the measured signal strength in 5 LTE network cell located in the central urban area of Riobamba in Ecuador. These measures were done using Network Cell Info Lite and WiFi software for Android systems and 3 campaign were applied getting 50 measured points in each cell. The results were compared with 5 propagation models (log-normal, Okumura-Hata, Cost 231, Walfisch-Bertoni and SUI models) where the SUI and log-normal models fit better for the areas analyzed. The signal strength varies from −70 to −110 dBm. Finally, the model that best fits the real values obtained is determined through the calculation of the quadratic error.
