This work evaluated the path loss ad received signal strength level (RSSL) of a GSM (MTN) Network at 900MHz in Calabar SouthEastern Nigeria using Drive test. Low Quality of signal (QOS) was discovered in Calabar South within this period of investigation. Using a Transmission Evaluation and Monitoring System (TEMS) equipment, Global Positioning Syst...

This work evaluated the path loss ad received signal strength level (RSSL) of a GSM (Globacom) Network at 900MHz in Umuahia-Eastern Nigeria using Drive test. Low Quality of signal (Q O S) was discovered in Umuahia within the period of investigation. Results from simulation of the acquired data using Matlab reviewed a considerable decline in the Receive Signal Strength Level (RSSL) in all sectors under investigation due to increase in population, building heights and vegetations. It is recommended that the frequency band be increased from 900MHz to 1800MHz to help remedy the effect of path loss within Umuahia.
