Speech Processing@ Transmission and Quality Aspects (STQ); A Study on the Minimum Additional Required Attenuation on the Antenna Path of the Field Test Equipment (V1.2.1)
The present document presents a theoretical model to be used for the estimation of the minimum required additional attenuation on the antenna path of the field test equipment in order for this to emulate the real life scenarios. The model takes into consideration propagation within different environments@ such as dense or spread urban areas@ as well as in car and pedestrian scenarios. In addition@ in order to provide the estimator@ the model uses previously determined and known values for a set of parameters such as measurement and phone antenna gain@ cable loss@ car penetration@ body loss. The model is not applicable in the HSPA environments requiring MIMO technology and in the LTE environment.
