Tsunami MP.11a Antenna Installation Guide Calculating Received Signal Level and Link Budget Use the following formula to estimate the received signal level (RSL): RSL (dBm) = P out - L 1 + G 1 + G 2 - L 2 - L p where: P out is the transmitter output power (in dBm) L 1 is the total loss of all transmission el ements between the antenna and the RF Un[...]

Tsunami MP.11a Antenna Installation Guide Procedure: 1. Start with the transmit power and the number of the channel to be used. From the output power tables ( on page 23) find the dBm associated with this output power and channel. 2. Subtract the total loss of all transmission el ements between the antenna and the radio on one side of the link (dB)[...]

Tsunami MP.11a Antenna Installation Guide An EIRP limit is the maximum RF energy that can be transmitted, as measured at the transmitting antenna, and is usually determined by government regulations.
