Input signal level (G) dBm
CE max. o/p power (E) dBm
Gain setting E - G dB
Isolation required (Gain + 10dB) dB
Service antenna gain (A) dB
Service antenna feeder loss (C) dB
Effective radiated power (ERP) E+A-C dBm
Attenuator setting CE gain-gain setting dB
If the input signal level in the uplink path is known and steady, use the following calculation table to
determine the gain setting. If the CE features Automatic Gain Control the attenuator should be set
to zero and if not, then the attenuation setting for both uplink and downlink should be similar.
