Summary: | Relaying technology (i.e. relay network) is one of the
technologies that plays a significant role for improving the
performance of an emerging wireless communication standard
known as, Long Term Evolution-Advanced (LTE-A). Backhaul link
is one of the links in the relay networks that is responsible for data
communication between base station and relay stations. To ensure
efficient communication in the backhaul link, good radio
propagation environment, such as path loss, is required. This paper
evaluates the performance of a number of well-known path loss
models (original and modified versions) in order to identify the most
suitable model for usage in backhaul link of LTE-A relay station.
The results demonstrate that the modified COST231-Hata model
which is introduced with some modifications is the most suitable for
implementation in the backhaul link of LTE-A relay station. |
