Abstract :
Formulas are given for determining the transmitter power required to provide a specified grade of service in point-to-point radio relaying of the following types of signals: television, frequency modulation high fidelity music, frequency modulation voice, frequency shift telegraph, and a just measurable signal. Allowance is made for the antenna gains, the carrier frequency, the systems bandwidth, distance, the antenna heights above the ground and the effects of the terrain and the atmosphere along the transmission path. The formula for the transmission loss allows separately for the effects of the actual distance, the angular distance and the antenna heights, and this separation of the influence of these variables provides the basis for the development of rules for the efficient siting of the terminals of a tropospheric forward scatter relay circuit.
