Question
A mobile is located 5 km away from a base station and uses a
vertical 2/4 monopole antenna with a gain of 2.55 dB to receive
cellular radio signals. The E-field at 1 km from the transmitter is
measured to be 10-3 V/m. The carrier frequency used for this
system is 900 MHz.
(a) Find the length (m) and the effective aperture of the receiving
antenna (m2)
[8.33cm, 0.016m²]
..
(b) Find the received power at the mobile using the two ray ground
reflection model assuming the height of the transmitting antenna is
50 m and the receiving antenna is 1.5 m above ground.
= 1.131 x 10-7 V/m, P, = -182.7 dBW]
