✦ Synopsis
The accuracy of a semi-empirical point-to-point propagation model, based on terrain data information close to the receiver, is tested. The evaluation is performed through extended transmission loss measurements taken in an urban environment (Athens region) in the 900 MHz band. The prediction error is calculated for each measurement point and coordinated with detailed terrain information. Specifically, the evaluation of the model is separately performed for various categories of measurement data with respect to the measurement point's effective height and line-of-sight conditions.
