- (1)
- Obtain all the paths, the first Fresnel zone of the receiving point, and the source transmitting point.
- (2)
- If there is a blocker, such as a building, on this path, the channel is an NLoS channel (without a direct path).
- (3)
- If there is no blocker in the first Fresnel zone, it is a LoS channel (only the direct path).
- (4)
- If there is a blocker in the first Fresnel zone, but it is not blocking the direct link between Tx and Rx, then it is a multi-LoS channel (the direct and non-direct paths).
- (1)
- Obtain a single standard parabolic equation, Egli, and Okumura–Hata model’s data.
- (2)
- The three models are used as the center to extend the domain radius outward, and the data within the radius of the connected neighborhood is a class of models.
