The constant in this equation is derived following similar logic. First, consider the Poynting Vector
which relates the power density (W/m
Where is the free space characteristic impedance equal to 120
decibels and using the appropriate conversion factor to convert dBW/m
density and dBV/m to dBV/m for the electric field, the constant becomes 115.8
Where AF is the antenna factor of the antenna being used, provided by the antenna manufacturer or
To derive the constant for the above equation, simply convert the characteristic impedance of free
The derivation for the constant in the above equation comes from the decibel equivalent of the factor
In this equation, the constant 2.0 is derived as follows. The magnetic flux density, B in Teslas (T), is
related to the magnetic field strength, H in A/m, by the permeability of the medium in Henry's per
Converting from T to pT and from A/m to A/m, and taking the Log, the constant becomes...
