How to Evaluate Strength of Ground Wave?

Strength of Ground Wave evaluator uses Strength of Ground Wave Propagation = (120*pi*Height of Transmitter*Height of Receiver*Antenna Current)/(Wavelength*Transmitter Receiver Distance) to evaluate the Strength of Ground Wave Propagation, The Strength of Ground Wave formula is defined as a method of radio wave propagation that uses the area between the surface of the earth and the ionosphere for transmission. Strength of Ground Wave Propagation is denoted by Egnd symbol.

How to evaluate Strength of Ground Wave using this online evaluator? To use this online evaluator for Strength of Ground Wave, enter Height of Transmitter (ht), Height of Receiver (hr), Antenna Current (Ia), Wavelength (λ) & Transmitter Receiver Distance (D) and hit the calculate button.

FAQs on Strength of Ground Wave

What is the formula to find Strength of Ground Wave?
The formula of Strength of Ground Wave is expressed as Strength of Ground Wave Propagation = (120*pi*Height of Transmitter*Height of Receiver*Antenna Current)/(Wavelength*Transmitter Receiver Distance). Here is an example- 399.9994 = (120*pi*10.2*5*2246.89)/(90*1200).
How to calculate Strength of Ground Wave?
With Height of Transmitter (ht), Height of Receiver (hr), Antenna Current (Ia), Wavelength (λ) & Transmitter Receiver Distance (D) we can find Strength of Ground Wave using the formula - Strength of Ground Wave Propagation = (120*pi*Height of Transmitter*Height of Receiver*Antenna Current)/(Wavelength*Transmitter Receiver Distance). This formula also uses Archimedes' constant .
Can the Strength of Ground Wave be negative?
Yes, the Strength of Ground Wave, measured in Electric Field Strength can be negative.
Which unit is used to measure Strength of Ground Wave?
Strength of Ground Wave is usually measured using the Volt per Meter[V/m] for Electric Field Strength. Kilovolt per Meter[V/m], Millivolt per Meter[V/m], Microvolt per Meter[V/m] are the few other units in which Strength of Ground Wave can be measured.
