Earth Bulge

06:32 / Posted by tech data /

When planning for paths longer than seven miles, the curvature of the earth might become a factor in path planning and require that the antenna be located higher off the ground . The additional antenna height needed can be calculated using the following formula:

H = D2/8

Where,

H = Height of earth bulge (in feet)

D = Distance between antennas (in miles)
