Abstract
The mobile operators in Libya, like many other operators, use some propagation models to predict the strength of the signal at the receiver, but without analyzing which model is the best for the Tripoli region. This paper presents a comparison of four radio propagation empirical-type models (COST 231, Okumura, Okumura-Hata, and Ericson 9999) based on LTE technology to be applied at different locations within Tripoli environment. The field measurements analysis shows that the Okumura has the lowest RMSE value, which is being tuned using real data collected from the local environment.
