Add propagation Module


We can add different propagation module as per
requirement.
Value of constant parameter K1,K2 K7 is
calibrated by module tuning of the Network
The Standard Propagation Model is a propagation
model based on the Hata formulas and is suited
for predictions in the 150 to 3500 MHz band over
long distances (from one to 20 km). It is best
suited to GSM 900/1800, UMTS, and CDMA2000
radio technologies.
