ANN Prediction Models for Outdoor Environment

This paper presents the results of our studies concerning the applications of feedforward artificial neural networks to the propagation path loss prediction in outdoor environment. An error correction model is proposed, based on the combination between a theoretical model and a neural network. The performances of the proposed artificial neural network models are compared to the measured path loss values, based on the absolute mean error, standard deviation and root mean square error. Also, the proposed neural network models are compared to each other and to the COST 231-Walfisch-Ikegami
