Abstract

Appropriate path loss mathematical models help in reducing the complexity of the co-channel interference of Global System for Mobile Communication and Wireless Networks. This work proposes, to adopt and modify Hata model using fuzzy logic and spline interpolation techniques. Mean absolute errors of 1.55 dB and 0.4 dB were obtained using the techniques respectively. It was found that, using fuzzy logic - spline interpolation model, path loss is minimized by 1.94 dB in the study area. Therefore, fuzzy logic - spline interpolation is recommended for path loss prediction for next generation wireless networks in medium cities in Nigeria especially Yola. It is suggested that, neuro – fuzzy spline interpolation may be used to further minimize path loss error for medium cities.
