Este artículo realiza un análisis comparativo de los niveles de intensidad de potencia medidos con la aplicación Network Cell Info Lite y el desempeño de los diferentes modelos de propagación: Log-Normal, Okumura Hata, COST 231, Walfish Bertoni y SUI, en la Banda de Frecuencia 4G LTE. El estudio se realizó en cinco celdas de cobertura LTE ubicadas en la zona sur de la ciudad de Riobamba. Se eligió el modelo que mejor se ajusta a cada celda mediante el análisis de error absoluto, con ello se obtuvo un factor empírico de corrección para los modelos propuestos. Para el análisis del error absoluto se realizaron tres campañas de medición con 50 muestras donde se consiguió el valor medio. Después de aplicar los modelos antes mencionados, el modelo Log-Normal arrojó los resultados más favorables siendo este, el que logró una mejor adaptación en Riobamba ya que los niveles de potencia varían en el rango (-80; -106) dBm a una zona de cobertura no superior a los 200m.
