About This Tool
Radio frequency regulatory compliance requires calculating Equivalent Isotropically Radiated Power (EIRP) and Effective Radiated Power (ERP) by accounting for transmitter power output, transmission line waveguide losses, and directional antenna gain. This RF calculation workspace accepts three inputs: an active transmitter RF wattage level ($V_1$), an antenna directive gain coefficient ($V_2$), and a coaxial cable feedline loss divisor ($V_3$).
The algorithm calculates the primary radiated emission index ($[V_1 imes V_2] / max(0.01, V_3)$), the root RF magnitude coefficient ($sqrt{max(0, V_1 imes V_2)}$), and the relative transmission efficiency share ($[V_1 / (V_1 + V_2)] imes 100$).
### Distinct Worked Calculation Evaluating a commercial UHF broadcast repeater link: - Transmitter Power Level ($V_1$): 135 - Antenna Gain Coefficient ($V_2$): 45 - Feedline Attenuation Divisor ($V_3$): 9
Step-by-step results: - Primary Radiated Metric: $(135 imes 45) / 9 = 6075 / 9 = 675.00$ - Intermediate RF Magnitude: $sqrt{135 imes 45} = sqrt{6075} approx 77.94$ - Radiated Efficiency Share: $[135 / (135 + 45)] imes 100 = (135 / 180) imes 100 = 75.00%$

How to Use
- 1
Enter the transmitter output power rating into the first input field.
- 2
Specify the antenna directional gain multiplier in the second box.
- 3
Set your feedline attenuation or loss divisor in the third input.

Examine the resulting primary radiated emission index, intermediate magnitude, and efficiency percentage.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the mathematical difference between EIRP and ERP?
EIRP references an ideal isotropic antenna radiator (0 dBi), whereas ERP references a theoretical half-wave dipole (2.15 dBi lower than EIRP).
Can feedline loss reduce the effective radiated output?
Yes. Cable attenuation dissipates RF energy as heat before it reaches the antenna radiator, diminishing total radiated power.
Does this tool transmit broadcast specs over the web?
No. Transmitter power mathematics are evaluated without cloud network requests.
