DEFINITION OF TERMS
antenna.
5. EARTH BULGE (EB) – the curvature of the Earth's surface, which limits
the range of communication methods that require a line-of-sight path
threshold value.
the earth is sufficiency removed from the radio horizon of signal to free
space propagation.
11. FRESNEL ZONE – is the area around the visual line-of-sight that radio
13. LINK BUDGET – is a summary of the transmitted power long with all the
gains and losses in the system and this enables the strength of the
0.001–0.3 m, shorter than that of a normal radio wave but longer than
16. NET PATH LOSS (NPL) – refers to the sum of all gains and losses within
telecommunication system.

21. RECEIVED SIGNAL LEVEL (RSL) – it is the amount of input signal into
the receiver from the waveguide. It is also referred to the sum of all losses
22. RECEIVER SENSITIVITY – refers to the lowest power level at which the
in a line which results in part of energy being reflected back to the source.
25. TRANSMISSION LINE LOSS (TLL) – it is the actual power that is loss in
the line.
26. TRANSMITTED POWER (PT) – is the actual amount of power (in watts) of
