Textbook Question
Chapter 9, Problem 23P
A 3 GHz line-of-sight microwave communication link consists of two lossless parabolic dish antennas, each 1 m in diameter. If the receive antenna requires 10 nW of receive power for good reception and the distance between the antennas is 40 km, how much power should be transmitted?

Satellites A and B have the same communication equipment (transmitter, antenna, etc.) onboard to communicate with the same ground station. If satellite A is in an orbit 1000 Km higher than satellite B, which will have a poorer signal-to-noise ratio? Why?
What should be the relative dielectric constant of the dielectric material between the plates so that the propagation speed is 1x10^8 m/s in a 50 ohm parallel plate transmission line to be used at 3 GHz?
Q. A base stationcellular communicationsystems lossless antenna has a maximum gain of 16 dB (above isotropic) at 1,900 MHz. Assuming the input power to the antenna is 8 watts, what is the maximum radiated power density (in watts/cm2 ) at a distance of 100 meters? This will determine the safe level for human exposure to electromagnetic radiation.
