Abstract :
The Fresnel-Kirchhoff integral is used to compute path loss from buildings in 3D urban and suburban environments (except downtown area). Both diffraction and reflection are considered. One example of path loss prediction behind a simple building is given and the agreement with published measurement data is very good.
