ANTENNA FORMULAS AND CALCULATIONS
A specific antenna factor is associated with each frequency. This number is to be added
to the receiver reading (in dBuV) in order to convert to field intensity in dBuV/Meter.
EXAMPLE:
Assume the transmitter to be measured is operating at 1 MHz and the receiver reading
indicates 44.0 dBuV
AF (dB/m) = 0.1
Receiver reading (dBuV) = 44 dBuV
Cable loss (dB) = 0.7
Field Intensity = AF + receiver r cable loss
Field Intensity = 0.1 + 44.0 + 0.7
Field Intensity = 44.8 dBuV/Meter
