Recap
EC305.69 3
Free space
• Free space is the space that does not interferes with the
normal radiation and propagation of radio waves.
EC305.69 4
• Free space concept is used to simplify the approach to
wave propagation.

Power density of isotropic radiator

Where
Pd=power density in watts per square meter.
Pt=total power in watts.
r=distance from the antenna in meters

Problem 1
EC305.69 10
Relation between electric field and power
• The strength of the signal is more often given in terms of
its electric field intensity έ rather than power density as it
is easy to measure electric field intensity.
pd=(έ )2/£ £=Intrinsic impedance=377Ω.
from equation 68.1
pd=(έ )2/£=pt/4пr2 ..........(2)
by rearranging
έ2 =pt. £/4пr2
έ =√(pt. £/4пr2 )
EC305.69 11
For free space £ =377Ω and the equation simplifies to
έ =√[(377.pt)/(4пr2)]
έ =√[(30.pt)/r] .............(3)
where
έ = electric field strength in volts per meter.
pt = total power in watts.
r=distance from the source in meters.

Factors effecting Receiver signal strength
EC305.69 13
Power density pd
where
PD=power density in watts per square meter.
PT= total transmitted power in watts.
GT=gain of the transmitter antenna.
r=distance from transmitter to receiver, in meter
EC305.69 14
Effective area
The area from which a receiving antenna can be
considered to extract all the energy in an E.M. wave is
called effective area.
EC305.69 15
Effective area Aeff is given by
Aeff=PR/PD ........... (5)
...
where
Aeff=effective area of the antenna in square meters
PR=power delivered to the receiver in watts.
PD=power density of the wave in watts per square meter
EC305.69 16
Receiver power
PR= Aeff. PD
By substituting the value of PD
PR= Aeff. PTGT/4пr2 .........(6)
It can be shown that the effective area of a
receiving antenna is
Aeff=λ2GR/4п ..........(7)
Where
GR=antenna gain as power ratio.
λ= wave length of the signal.
EC305.69 17
Receiver power in terms of the gains of the two antennas
and the wave length , by combining equation (6) with
equation (7)
PR=Aeff.PTGT/4пr2
=λ2GRPTGT/(4п)(4 пr2)
PR= λ2PT.GT.GR/16 п2 r2
............(8)
EC305.69 18
Path loss
PR/PT=GT.GR/(4пr/λ)2 ..............(10)
EC305.69 19
Expressing equation (10) in decibel

Free space loss or path loss: Lfs=10log PT/Pr
replacing ‘d’ for distance in the place of r,
EC305.69 21
Problem:2
EC305.69 22
Free space loss
Lfs=32.44+20 log d (km)+[20 log f (MHz)]-
[GT(dBi)]-[GR(dBi)]
=32.44+20 log 10+20 log 325-12-5
Lfs =85.7dB
Lfs =10log PT/PR=85.7
PT/PR=anti log (85.7/10)
PR =PT/anti log (85.7/10)
=150w/372×106
PR =404×10-9w=404nW
EC305.69 23
Summary
EC305.69 24
• The area from which a receiving antenna can be
considered to extract all the energy in an
electromagnetic wave is called effective area.
• Fundamental equation for the space propagation, also
called as FRIIS FREE SPACE equation is
PR/PT=λ2 GT GR/16п2r2
• Path loss =Lfs=10 log PT/PR
Lfs(in dB)=32.44+[20logd(km)]+[20 log f(MHz)]
