Abstract (in Japanese) (See Japanese page) 
(in English) Recently, machine learning-based methods using environmental information as features have been proposed to model site-specific radio propagation characteristics. In particular, the convolutional neural network (CNN) -based techniques have been considered for extracting map data around the Tx/Rx points and using it as input data. CNN requires a fixed-size data input due to its structure, and there are concerns about accuracy degradation due to duplication or missing environmental information depending on the distance between the Tx and Rx and the map data extraction method. To address this issue, the author proposed a modeling method that uses the recurrent neural network (RNN) to allow input of variable-size map data and showed improved accuracy. However, RNN is a method of sequentially inputting series data and updating feature vectors, which increases the time required for training and prediction. In addition, when input to an RNN, map data must be converted to vector data, resulting in the loss of spatial information. In this paper, we propose CNN-based modeling using rectangular environment map data. Finally, we clarify the effectiveness of the proposed method by evaluation using measurement data in an urban area.
