ptxQuantity: Transmitter power, Ptx [dB_W, W]
gtxQuantity: Gain of transmitter, Gtx [dBi, dimless]
grxQuantity: Gain of receiver, Grx [dBi, dimless]
distQuantity: Distance between transmitter and receiver [m]
freqQuantity: Frequency of radiation [Hz]

Returns:

prxQuantity: Received power [W]

Notes

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