For reference, Tables 7-18 through 7-24 show the distance covered by an antenna for
various in-building environments. The following assumptions were made:
Path loss Equation (3)
0 dBm output per carrier at the RAU output
3 dBi antenna gain
RSSI = –85 dBm (typical for narrowband protocols, but not for spread-spec-
trum protocols)
