Both techniques are appropriate for the development of estimation models. However, multiple regression models make some assumptions about the underlying data. These assumptions include independence, normality and homogeneity of variance. Conversely, neural network based models are not constrained by such assumptions. The performance of the two techniques is calculated based on coefficient of determination (R2) and mean square error (MSE). The results indicate that MLP produced better estimate for the airwaves with MSE of 0.0113 and R2 of 0.9935. © 2014 IEEE. %Z cited By 0; Conference of 2014 International Conference on Computer and Information Sciences, ICCOINS 2014 ; Conference Date: 3 June 2014 Through 5 June 2014; Conference Code:112912
