Abstract

This paper deals with path loss calculation by using measurement results. This paper offers methodology for processing path loss measurement results. First part of the paper gives short introduction. Second part of the paper describes measurement results collection process. Third part of the paper offers methodology for processing measurement results. By using this methodology we can found real propagation model which caused path loss. Finally, paper gives example of calculation by using real measurement results on WiMAX system in town Cakovec on 3.5 GHz frequency band.
