Question

1. Design a line of sight communications link to operate on a frequency of 2.4 GHz with a transmission BW of 100 kHz. The transmitter will have a power of 10

W and an antenna gain of 12 dBi. The receiver will be located 10 miles away, have an antenna gain of 13 dBi and a noise figure of 2 dB. A) What is the power at the input to the receiver in dBm? B) What is the signal to noise ratio? (Assume an antenna noise temperature of 290 K). C) Discuss possible antennas that could be used at the receiver?
