These models consider the properties of electromagnetic waves and terrain conditions. The efficiency and accuracy of these Empirical models suffer when they are used for an area other than where they have been designed. So tuning of these models is required for proper and accurate prediction of coverage and it is done by taking the correction factor into account. Comparison of four Empirical models i.e, the Lee, the ECC-33 model, the WI model, the Ericsson model, the COST 231, and SUI is done with Measured path loss, and the best model with minimum error is then selected for tuning. Field data of LTE network at 2300 MHz is collected at two sites of Uttarakhand-India. It is analysed that the Ericsson model shows minimum RMSE, Standard Deviation, and Mean error as compared to measured path loss, followed by the Okumura model. The Ericsson model is then tuned to further reduce the error. Validation of the tuned model is done at Haridwar.</p>}, number={3}, journal={Journal of Cyber Security and Mobility}, author={Gupta, Akansha and Ghanshala, Kamal and Joshi, R.
