A Gaussian Process Regression Model to Predict Path Loss for an Urban Environment

Abstract

: This research paper presents a Gaussian process regression (GPR) model for predicting path loss signal in an urban environment. The Gaussian process regression model was developed using a dataset of path loss signal measurements acquired in two urban environments in Nigeria. Three different kernel functions were selected and compared for their performance in the Gaussian process regression model, including the squared exponential kernel, the Matern kernel
