If the height of transmitting and receiving antennas are 80 m each, the maximum line of sight distance will be:

Given : Earth's radius $=6.4\times10^6$ m

Accepted Answer

Maximum line of sight distance between two antennas,

\mathrm{d}_{\mathrm{M}}=\sqrt{2 \mathrm{Rh}_{\mathrm{T}}}+\sqrt{2 \mathrm{R} \cdot \mathrm{h}_{\mathrm{R}}}

\mathrm{d}_{\mathrm{M}}=2 \times \sqrt{2 \times 6.4 \times 10^{6} \times 80}=64 \mathrm{~km}
