Sažetak
Theory of electromagnetic waves is usually covered to a lesser extent within courses of physics for first year students of electrical engineering. Teaching higher education courses of more complex analysis of EM wave propagation which is meant for senior students, specially those of radio communications, imposes some challenges for professors because this subject is very difficult for students to understand. So, professors are faced with process of finding suitable tools for analysis and simulation of EM wave propagation which will complement their theoretical part of lectures. Various program tools such as MATLAB are useful applications for students in order to get a better insight of wireless network planning and design which will be a good preparation for their later work with real-life signals and industry systems worldwide. This paper describes basic properties and shows simulations results of COST 231-Hata, ITM (Irregular Terrain Model) and Ericsson used in the area of the city of Dubrovnik with frequencies of 800 MHz and 1.8 GHz used in Cloud RF tool.
