Question
Where did they get 10log (G) from?
Exercise 17.
A pulse radar operating at 10 GHz has an antenna with a gain of 28 dB, and a transmitter power of
2 kW (peak power). If it is desired to detect a target with a cross section of 12 m², and the minimum
detectable signal is Pmin=-90 dBm, what is the maximum range of the radar?
Ans:
8114 m.

If it is desired to detect a target with a cross section of 12 m², and the minimum detectable signal is Pmin=-90 dBm, what is the maximum range of the radar? Ans: 8114 m.
Step1
a)
A = Blog₁0 (C)
。 (c)
= log10
A
C = 10 B
Step2
b)
So in the above problem G and Pmin give id dB
and when you convert to decimal value so we
need to follow this step
GdB = 10 log10 (G)
28
10
G = 102.8
631
= log10 (G)
=
(Pmin)dB = 10 log10(Pmin)
–90 = 10 logıo(Pmin)
10
Pmin
Pmin
Step3
c)
C = 10
-90
10 10 mW
10-¹² W
