Free space loss formula is given by: Loss(db) = 32.4 +20 log(d)+20log(f)
where

d is the distance between transmitter and receiver given in Km
f is the frequency given in MHz

This is just the free space loss if you are interested in the complete model, consult Rappaport book.

Re: Free Space path loss

Thank you so muck for the answer to my question. This wed site rocks
 

Re: Free Space path loss


it's also can be calculated as following, am I right?

Path Loss (db) = 92.45 + 20 log(d) + 20log(f)

where

d is the distance between transmitter and receiver given in Km
f is the frequency given in GHz

Please correct me if I'm wrong.

Thank you.
 

Re: Free Space path loss

I was wondering if you could help me . I am simulating a processed (carrying info) time domain signal which travels like 900m away to a receiver. I want the received signal to be effected by pathloss in time domain, how can i do that. its a very simple question , i am using matlab
