Note
Gain of antenna in dBi = 10*log(G).
The regulations require that the power used for the calculations is the maximum
power in the transmit burst subject to allowance for source-based time-averaging.
At 5.4 GHz and EU 5.8 GHz, the products are generally limited to a fixed EIRP which
can be achieved with the Integrated Antenna. The calculations above assume that the
maximum EIRP allowed by the regulations is being transmitted.
Note
If there are no EIRP limits in the country of deployment, use the distance calculations
for FCC 5.8 GHz for all frequency bands.
At FCC 5.8 GHz, for antennas between 0.6m (2ft) and 1.8m (6ft), alter the distance
proportionally to the antenna gain.
