Abstract

WiMAX technology carries the promise of broadband access and wireless coverage. Developing countries throughout the world have been fast at adopting and employing the new technology to bridge the digital divide. The deployment of WiMAX networks enables the validation and testing of the technology. It is imperative that the technology be tested in different environments and the results shared and compared. Jordan provides a unique environment in its architecture, building construction materials, usage model, topology and vegetation. This work considers a mobile WiMAX network operating at 3.5 GHz deployed in Amman, Jordan. The work presents a new model for predicting path loss based on the results of field measurements of signals power and it compares proposed model and measured data to different propagation models.
