Abstract: Throughout the wireless communication network planning process, efficient signal reception power estimation is of great significance for accurate 5 G network deployment. The wireless propagation model predicts the radio wave propagation characteristics within the target communication coverage area, making it possible to estimate cell coverage, inter-cell network interference, and communication rates, etc. In this paper, we develop a series of features by considering various factors in the signal transmission process, including the shadow coefficient, absorption coefficient in test area and base station area, distance attenuation coefficient, density, azimuth angle, relative height and ground feature index coefficient. Then we design a quantile regression neural network to predict reference signal receiving power (RSRP) by feeding the above features. The network structure is specially constructed to be generalized on various complex real environments. To prove the effectiveness of proposed features and deep learning model, extensive comparative ablation experiments are applied. Finally, we have achieved the precision rate (PR), recall rate (RR), and inadequate coverage recognition rate (PCRR) of 84.3%, 78.4%, and 81.2% on the public dataset, respectively. The comparison with a series of state-of-the-art machine learning methods illustrates the superiority of the proposed method.
