Figure 21-8: Rate selector
The Rate shown, defines the air-interface rate in Mbps. The system operates in TDD
mode and has the overhead of the air-interface protoco.l Thus, the Ethernet actual
throughput is provided by the Ethernet Rate.
The Fade margin is the minimum required for LOS conditions. For degraded link con-
ditions, a larger Fade margin should be used.
The EIRP is given in dBm and Watts.
Note
If you choose Adaptive Rate, then the Rate list is unavailable as is the
Climate factor list. Both of these quantities are calculated.
Note
For a given air-rate, Ethernet throughput will decrease with increasing range
due to propagation delay.
