Hmm. I think I'm getting the problem with my equation. As you said, I should be getting all energy. that just means the Friis' Path Loss Formula estimates a certain propagation area and a finite point where it is received. From the wikipedia page, I see it has assumed an isotropic case. In the...

So, how do you exactly define the start of a path when something like this involves an interaction at B? let's say there's a reflection at point B. Will it "start" a new path? or is it safe to treat the total reflected path distance and treat it as a single path loss?

Let's say we have a path Length AC. Point A transmits a signal at Ptransmit. From Friis' Path Loss formula: (assumming Gain for receiver and transmitter antennae are 1.) ##P_{received} = P_{transmit} (\frac{λ}{4π* LengthAC})^2## ,when point C contains the receiver. What if I divided this into...

I think I'm overthinking in this problem. I just want to know if this equation is applicable or ##P=0.5*ε_oE^2## should be used here? So i could say that when I have the gain of an antenna ##Ga P = 0.5 *ε_o(E*f_a)^2## ##f_a = \sqrt{G_a}## What about the path loss term Li? ##\frac{1}{4πR^2}P =...

Homework Statement I am modelling a ray-tracing algorithm(image method), and I am in the part where I am getting the summation of all EM "rays" hitting the receiver. I come to a problem where I can't properly convert and unsure to do so. Ideally, I should have a collection of Ei waves defined...
