Abstract :
In this work is proposed an empirical Autoregressive Moving-Average (ARMA) model for signal strength prediction in outdoor environments. A Genetic Algorithm (GA) was employed to calibrate the model (finding coefficients), thus, allowing future improvements without major changes in the program source code.
