Egli Model Distance Calculator and Formula

distance calculation egli model path loss rf wireless link budget

This page describes the Egli model distance calculator. It calculates the distance between a Base Station (BS) and a Mobile Station (MS) based on the path loss. The Egli model distance formula is also provided. The BS acts as the transmitter, and the MS acts as the receiver.

Outputs

Calculated using the Egli model

Use the calculator to determine the distance. Simply input the required values, as shown in the example.

Example:

  • INPUTS:
    • BS antenna gain = 0 dBi
    • Mobile antenna gain = 0 dBi
    • BS height = 100 meters
    • MS height = 2 meters
    • Path Loss = -125 dB
    • Frequency = 900 MHz
  • OUTPUTS:
    • Distance between BS and MS (Egli model) = 3975.79 meters

(Note: the actual calculator functionality is not included here, as it is a software component. This response is a text conversion of the article)

Egli Model Distance Formula

The following Egli model distance formula is used to compute the distance from the path loss:
