Transmission loss

The definition of transmission loss according to [2] is

$\begin{displaymath} TL = -20\log\left\vert \frac {P(\mbox{$\mathbf{r}$},\omega )}{P_0} \right\vert , \end{displaymath}$

(2.29)

where

$\begin{displaymath}P_0 = 1/(4\pi) . \end{displaymath}$

Bellhop however, calculates transmission loss as

$\begin{displaymath} TL = -20\log\left\vert P(\mbox{$\mathbf{r}$},\omega ) \right\vert . \end{displaymath}$

(2.30)

The same definition is adopted by TRACEO.
