Fresnel Zone
How far above the ground and other obstacles the antennas need to be is
determined by the radius of the Fresnel zone. The radius of the Fresnal Zone
depends upon the frequency and distance between the two radios. The
following table provides approximate Fresnel zone radius:
In order to have LOS clearance, the combined antenna height should be equal
to or at least 70% of the radius of the Fresnel zone.
