EIRP (Effective Isotropic Radiated Power) is the measured radiated power of an antenna in a specific direction. It is also called Equivalent Isotropic Radiated Power. It is the output power when a signal is concentrated into a smaller area by the Antenna.
How is EIRP measured?
remote receiving antenna is the effective isotropic radiated power (EIRP), measured in watts per metre squared. To achieve high EIRP the antenna dimensions should be several times larger than the largest transmitted wavelength.
What is EIRP used for?
EIRP (Effective Isotropic Radiated Power) is a calculation used to estimate the radiated output power of an isotropic antenna (a theoretical half wave dipole antenna that radiates perfectly in all directions). This formula takes into account transmitter output power, cable loss, and antenna gain.
What does EIRP mean?
The equivalent isotropically radiated power (EIRP) is generally used to restrict the amount of radiation power from wireless devices, which is defined as EIRP = , where is the gain of the transmitting antenna, and is the input power to the transmitting antenna [
What is the unit of EIRP?
EIRP can be used to compare any two emitters regardless of type, size or form. Its unit is dBi.
