Test yourself, answer these questions

  • Convert to dB, dBm: Pr = Pt . Gt . Gr . L(free)
  • What is the exact difference between permeability and permittivity?
  • What is Relative permittivity? and Relative Permeability?
  • Define Propagation constant

Lecture notes


Discussions from earlier years

How much is 0 dB_m and 10 dB_m?

  • Convert dBm to mW is: mW = 10^(x/10), x = number of dBm
  • Convert mW to dBm is: dBm = 10*log10(y), y = number of mW

So you get:

  • 0 dBm = 10^(0/10) = 1 mW
  • 10 dBm = 10^(10/10) = 10 mW

Power received in an area in a distance R from transmitter:

  • area of a sphere is
  • power transmitted from isotropic antenna is
  • antenna area of receiver is
  • power received in A_r = P_r
