Antenna Separation variable definitions:
I
h
[dB]
isolation between horizontally separated transmitter and receiver antennas
dh
[m]
the horizontal distance from the centre of interferer antenna to that of the
interfered with receiver antenna
dv
[m]
the vertical distance from the interferer antenna to the interfered with receiver
antenna, (measured from radiation center-to-radiation center)
f [Hz]
the wavelength of the interfered with system frequency band
GTx [dBi]
gain of the transmitter antenna
GRx [dBi]
gain of the receiver antenna
I
v
[dB]
Isolation between vertically separated transmitter and receiver antennas.
