    In this paper, we report the performance study of two of the most widely used empirical models, 3GPP and CI models at 11 GHz in an irregular environment for future communication networks. Large-scale fading simulation has been carried out under the line-of-sight (LoS) and non-line-of-sight (NLoS) scenarios. An RF planning software package, Path Loss 5 (PL5) was used to carry out the simulation to reveal the expected receiver power, path loss, and terrain profile for the environment under consideration. From the simulated report, the simulated values were fitted with the path loss models. With the path loss exponent of 3.1, the results of the models' comparisons revealed that the CI model overestimated the path loss throughout its path in both LoS and NLoS scenarios with an MAE of 16.32 dB and 19.21 dB. The 3GPP model shows its best performance in LoS scenario but within a short distance (< ??? ?) in NLoS scenario with an MAE of 9.14 dB and 11.09 dB respectively. The simulations suggest that the 3GPP model is better for path loss prediction in an environment under consideration at mm-Wave frequency.
