It is important to consider many technical issues before going to design and establish an expensive Wireless system. It is necessary to see the mathematical predictions or calculations before going to design such type of systems. This paper outlines and compares the different path loss propagation models with measured field data of received signal strength at Narnaul (Haryana, India) in GSM frequency band. This mathematical study of path loss is carried out in different climatic conditions like summer, winter, etc. The study helped to design better GSM network for the urban areas located near to these cities. The analysis shows that the measured data is nearer to the Okumura model and still need some modification to get more accurate results. The modification of Okumura model is given by considering climatic effects along with the area factor in the above mentioned area. The goal of this paper is to analyze attenuation impact on the performance of a mobile station respectively on the received signal quality to the end user.

This mathematical study of path loss is carried out in different climatic conditions like summer, winter, etc. The study helped to design better GSM network for the urban areas located near to these cities. The analysis shows that the measured data is nearer to the Okumura model and still need some modification to get more accurate results. The modification of Okumura model is given by considering climatic effects along with the area factor in the above mentioned area. The goal of this paper is to analyze attenuation impact on the performance of a mobile station respectively on the received signal quality to the end user.
