Calculates wireless link margin comparing transmit power and gains against path loss and noise. Determines link reliability and range.

ସୂତ୍ର

Path loss = 20 log10(4πd×f/c)

ଷ୍ଟେପ୍-ଷ୍ଟେପ୍ ଗାଇଡ୍ |

  1. 1Transmit power + antenna gain - cable loss - path loss + receive gain - noise figure = link margin
  2. 2Path loss = 20 log10(4πd×f/c)
  3. 3Positive margin = good signal; negative = insufficient range
  4. 4Typical 10-20 dB margin for reliability

ସମାଧାନ ହୋଇଥିବା ଉଦାହରଣ

ଇନପୁଟ୍
Tx 30dBm, path loss 100dB
ଫଳ
-70dBm rx

ଏଡ଼ାଇବା ଯୋଗ୍ୟ ସାଧାରଣ ଭୁଲ

  • Not accounting for cable losses (2-3 dB typical)
  • Using theoretical max power instead of regulated output

What's acceptable link margin?

Minimum 3 dB; 10+ dB good; 20+ dB excellent; accounts for fading and interference.

How do I improve link budget?

Increase transmit power, better antennas, lower frequency, shorter distance, or better receiver.
