A TECHNIQUE FOR INCREASING THE RELIABILITY OF ESTIMATING PARAMETERS OF THE ELECTROMAGNETIC ENVIRONMENT IN THE AREA OF OPERATION OF ELEMENTS OF THE RADIO ACCESS NETWORK

This article examines the performance assessment of a subscriber radio access network to meet the service needs of its highly mobile consumers. Known methods for assessing ra­dio communication quality [1–4] rely on the assumption of uniformity in the underlying sur­face type over the radio link interval and a known interference level. The objective state of a radio channel deviates from this assumption due to the unique noise level at a speci­fic reception location and the wide variety of underlying surface types over the radio link inter­val, as well as variations in the permittivity of the medium. The presented method enab­les the quality of service provision to subscribers of a subscriber radio access network to be assessed with a given degree of reliability.
