Pathloss - RF Cafe Forums

The original RF Cafe Forums were shut down in late 2012 due to maintenance issues - primarily having to spend time purging garbage posts from the board. At some point I might start the RF Cafe Forums again if the phpBB software gets better at filtering spam.

Below are the old forum threads, including responses to the original posts.

How to Calculate Outdoor / Indoor Path Loss? Say at 2.4GHz and 5.8GHz.

Also Like to Know Different Material (Loss) Properties at 2.4GHz / 5.8GHz Band.

fudged free air path loss

PL = 20 log(f) + 20 log(d) - Gt - Gr - 27.6

f = frequency in MHz,
d = distance in meters between Tx and Rx antennas
20 log(F) = gain of a isotropic receiving antenna
Gt, Gr = antenna gains of the transmitter and receiver antennas.
