Signal Pwr (dBm) Computation

Hi mtownsend & others,

Thanks for the info in your response to geobrick.

How are the power levels at transition zones calculated?

For example, when transitioning from 2Edge to Tropo there could be at least two major sources of signal power:

- The 2Edge portion, and
- The Tropo portion.

Seems at these regions, the two or more sources could be relatively independent in amplitude and phase (and for some portion of time be interfering with each other).

Does TVfool compute a statistical average of both, over some time (space) region?

Or, maybe, just take the larger of the two and use that value for the signal power?

Or, some other computational algorithm.

Could you elaborate on how these transition regions are handled?
