powerflux_from_ptx#

pycraf.conversions.powerflux_from_ptx(ptx, dist, gtx)[source]#

Power flux density from transmitter power.

Parameters:
ptxQuantity

Transmitter power, Ptx [dB_W, W]

distQuantity

Distance to transmitter [m]

gtxQuantity

Gain of transmitter, Gtx [dBi, dimless]

Returns:
powerfluxQuantity

Power flux density, S (at distance) [W/m**2]

Notes

Because all parameters/returned values are Astropy Quantities (see Quantity), unit conversion is automatically performed.
