In a Long range microwave communication system operating at a 12GHz, the transmitting and receiving antennas are identical and are separated by 15000 meter. To meet the signal to noise ratio of the receiver the received power must be at least 20µw.Assuming the two antennas are aligned for maximum reception to each other including being polarization matched, what should the gains (in dB) of transmitting and receiving antennas be when the input power to the transmitting antenna is 10W

In a Long range microwave communication system operating at a 12GHz, the
transmitting and receiving antennas are identical and are separated by 15000 meter. To
meet the signal to noise ratio of the receiver the received power must be at least
20µw.Assuming the two antennas are aligned for maximum reception to each other
including being polarization matched, what should the gains (in dB) of transmitting
and receiving antennas be when the input power to the transmitting antenna is 10W
