Field Strength Calculation The field strength is calculated by adding the Antenna Factor and Cable Factor, and subtracting the Amplifier Gain (if any) from the measured reading. The basic equation with a sample calculation is as follow: FS = RA + AF + CF – AG Where FS = Field Strength RA = Receiver Amplitude AF = Antenna Factor CF = Cable Factor AG = Amplifier Gain Assume a receiver reading of 52.5dBµV is obtained. The antenna factor of 7.4 and a cable factor of 1.1 is added. The amplifier gain of 29dB is subtracted, giving a field strength of 32 dBµV/m. FS = 52.5 + 7.4 + 1.1 – 29 = 32 dBµV/m The 32 dBµV/m value can be mathematically converted to its corresponding level in µV/m. Level in µV/m = Common Antilogarithm [(32dBµV/m)/20] = 39.8 µV/m.
