Tk вЂ“ attenuation for 1 metre of cable at operating frequency of the transmitter is calculated from the following formula: a wireless router), cable and antenna, E.I.R.P. For custom WLAN applications, a simple calculation will verify if the signal power meets the requirements.ДЇor a system including a transmitter (e.g. which means that the device conforms to the regulations when using an external or built-in antenna only. Remember, that the Access Points manufacturers often specify the transmitter power in E.I.R.P. cable type, length and attenuation at operating frequency and connector attenuation,.network adapter, access point) output power, (30 dBm).Д¬onsider the following to prevent E.I.R.P. In accordance to Polish and EU regulations, the maximum power that can be used to transmit in the specific WLAN frequency range (exceeding the power means that you are breaking the law): (Effective Isotropic Radiated Power) - is an equivalent effective isotropic radiated power defined as a power that would have to be radiated by a hypothetical isotropic antenna to achieve identical signal level in the direction of maximum radiation of a specific antenna.вЂќ calculation is a key parameter used in design and calculations of WLAN and satellite link parameters.Д®.I.R.P. G(dBd) = G(dBi) вЂ“ 2.15 = 8 dBi - 2.15 = 5.85 dBdДBi unit and definition of an isotropic antenna used in E.I.R.P. LetвЂ™s consider an 8 dBi antenna and calculate its gain compared to the half-wave dipole. G(dBd) - power gain of half-wave dipole antennaД®xample. Remember, that the half-wave dipole has a theoretical gain of 2.15 dB greater compared to the isotropic antenna (because the dipole field intensity in a given direction is greater by 2.15 dB or 1.64 times than the intensity of the isotropic antenna): LetвЂ™s calculate how much stronger a 17 dBi antenna receives (transmits) the signal the compared to the isotropic antenna.ДЎ7 dBi antenna will receive (transmit) the signal 50.11 times stronger than the isotropic antenna. (G) вЂ“ how much stronger the antenna transmits or receives signal compared to the isotropic antenna (in a linear scale).Д®xample. G(dBi) вЂ“ power gain of the isotropic antenna expressed in decibels The following equation is used to calculate power gain of the isotropic antenna: The following diagrams shows the isotropic antenna: Theoretically, the isotropic antenna is an infinitesimally small point in space, radiating ideally uniformly (isotropically) in each direction in space, without reflections and losses (its radiation characteristics is spherical). In science, the term is used to define the features of objects showing identical and uniform properties in all directions. What are the origins of the term вЂisotropicвЂ™? Isotropy and isotropic from Greek вЂisosвЂ™ meaning вЂequalвЂ™ or вЂsameвЂ™ and вЂtrГіposвЂ™ meaning вЂsenseвЂ™ or вЂturnвЂ™. Thus, the value can be calculated or expressed in theoretical terms only. It is a theoretical value, since the isotropic antenna does not exist and cannot be designed or constructed. DBi - antenna gain (вЂGвЂ™) expressed in dBi shows a value in decibels by which the antenna gain is higher than that of a hypothetical isotropic antenna assuming that both antennas are fed with the same power.
