Consider a communication link with a geostationary satellite such that transmitter receiver separation is 30,000 km. Assume the same transmitter and receiver. If a 100-mili-watt transmitter at 4 GHz is used with transmitting and receiving antennas of 0.5-m2 effective area, what is the received power level in dBm? What implications does this power level have on the receiver design? With a land-mobile satellite terminal, the typical antenna gain is 10 dB or less. What does this imply about the data rates that may be supported by such a link?
A microwave link includes two sites that are 10 km apart and uses a center frequency of 9 GHz. On either transmitter or receiver side, a 100-m transmission line that has an attenuation per unit length of 0.01 dB/m is connected to an amplifier and a parabolic reflector antenna. Other losses caused by connectors and insertions incurred on one side amounts to 3 dB. Antenna has a power gain of 20 dB. If the output of the transmitter amplifier is 30 dBm, what is the received signal level (in dBm) at the input of the receiver amplifier?
