Notes: Receiver Sensitivity Numbers between brackets [ ]are not the standard values (they are
estimations)

- Column (*1*) should be used if the approach of including Rayleigh fading is selected

- Column (*2*) should be used if the approach of removing any Rayleigh fading is
selected

The effects of shadow fading are not included in this table and will be addressed
elsewhere.
1 The PHS Standard specifies 16 dBµ for BER = 10-2. However this level is too low to

ensure system operation, so -88 dBm was set by the PHS MoU as the minimum
operational level.
2 According to RCR-28, the maximum base transmitter power is 4W (+36 dBm). We
have used +22 dBm in the calculations as this is a normal maximum power.
