Maybe I found the solution to the problem but I would like a
confirmation.
To apply an interference-type Log Normal Shadowing I put in the file
config.xml only model LogNormalShadowing. I do it?
Or I have to put in the file config.xml the two models
LogNormalShadowing and SimplePathlossModel together?

Also what values =E2=80=8B=E2=80=8BI set to do a simulation near to reality=
?

Thank you so much.
