Estimating RF Coverage
6.5.2
6-16
CONFIDENTIAL
RAU Coverage Distance
Use equations (1) and (2), on pages 6-14 and 6-15, respectively, to estimate the dis-
tance from the antenna to where the RF signal decreases to the minimum acceptable
level at the wireless device.
With d
set to one meter and path loss slope (PLS) defined as 10n, Equation (2) can
0
be simplified to:
PL(d) = 20log
Table 6-11 gives the value of the first term of Equation (3) (that is., (20log
for various frequency bands.
