    Hi @lxjm ,

    You can find the definition of the different LOS cases here, please check it out.

    You are probably trying to run an indoor scenario using the Dominant Path Model, correct?

    If you increase the exponent value, you will be increasing the attenuation you are applying to your signal.

    You also have the detailed explanation in the Path Loss Exponents subsection of this related part of the guide as well as the related formula where the exponent p is applied:
