| </ref> is the amount of power that a theoretical [[isotropic antenna]] (which evenly distributes power in all directions) would emit to produce the peak power density observed in the direction of maximum [[antenna gain]]. EIRP can take into account the losses in [[transmission line]] and connectors and includes the gain of the antenna. The EIRP is often stated in terms of [[decibel]]s over a reference power emitted by an isotropic radiator with an equivalent signal strength. The EIRP allows comparisons between different emitters regardless of type, size or form. From the EIRP, and with knowledge of a real antenna's gain, it is possible to calculate real power and field strength values.

| | |
| :<math>EIRP = P_T - L_c + G_a</math> | |
| | |
| where <math>\scriptstyle EIRP</math> and <math>\scriptstyle P_T</math> (output power of transmitter) are in [[dBm]], cable losses (<math>\scriptstyle L_c</math>) is in [[Decibel|dB]], and antenna gain (<math>\scriptstyle G_a</math>) is expressed in [[dBi]], relative to a (theoretical) isotropic reference antenna.
| |
| | |
| This example uses dBm, although it is also common to see [[dBW]].
| |
| | |
| [[Decibel]]s are a convenient way to express the ratio between two quantities. dBm uses a reference of 1 mW and dBW uses a reference of 1 W.
| |
| | |
| :<math>\text{dBm} = 10 \log \left(\frac{\text{power out}}{1\,\mathrm{mW}} \right)</math>
| |
| | |
| and
| |
| | |
| :<math>\text{dBW} = 10 \log \left(\frac{\text{power out}}{1\,\mathrm{W}} \right)</math>
| |
| | |
| A transmission output of 50 W is the same as 17 dBW or 47 dBm.
| |
| | |
| :<math>16.9897\,\mathrm{dBW} = 10 \log \left(\frac{50\,\mathrm{W}}{1\,\mathrm{W}} \right)</math>
| |
| | |
| The EIRP is used to estimate the service area of the transmitter, and to coordinate transmitters on the same frequency so that their coverage areas do not overlap.
| |
| | |
| In built-up areas, regulations may restrict the EIRP of a transmitter to prevent exposure of personnel to high power [[Electromagnetism|electromagnetic]] fields, however EIRP is normally restricted to minimise interference to services on similar frequencies.
