ABSTRACT: Efficient performance of the Lionet in Nsukka campus of the University of Nigeria may be hindered by the ornamental trees that characterises the physical features of the University environment. This work measured and analyzed the Lionet quality of service (QoS) in terms of received power level and path loss as functions of distance, under free space condition and in the presence of a tree. To achieve this, Ordinary Least Squares (OLS) regression analysis was used on the measured data with the help of SPSS version 16.0 software; to show the significance of the presence of trees on the Lionet QoS. The findings revealed that path loss is influenced significantly if (p
