Extended Xia Semi Deterministic Model for a Frequency of 28 GHz

Abstract

This paper presents a semi deterministic path loss model at frequency of 28 GHz for fifth generation (5G). We modified Xia model which was used for frequency of 0.9 GHz to 2.0 GHz with a correction factor in order to use for higher frequency. Two important parameters, average building height and distance of mobile from last roof top were considered while measured data in the dense urban environment around New York University's (NYU) Manhattan campus were used for modeling and verification. Comparisons between the modified and conventional models provide all NLOS propagation including transverse, lateral, and staircase.
