How does the Average power of a spherical electromagnetic wave change with distance from the source?

The Average Power of a spherical electromagnetic wave is inversely proportional to the square of the distance from the source. This means that as the distance from the source increases, the power density decreases.

How to Calculate Average Power?

Average Power calculator uses Average Power = 1/2*Sinusoidal Current^2*Radiation Resistance to calculate the Average Power, Average Power is the total energy transferred over a period of time divided by that time duration, representing the constant power level that delivers the same energy. Average Power is denoted by Pr symbol.

How to calculate Average Power using this online calculator? To use this online calculator for Average Power, enter Sinusoidal Current (io) & Radiation Resistance (Rrad) and hit the calculate button. Here is how the Average Power calculation can be explained with given input values -> 67.8375 = 1/2*4.5^2*6.7.

FAQ

What is Average Power?
Average Power is the total energy transferred over a period of time divided by that time duration, representing the constant power level that delivers the same energy and is represented as Pr = 1/2*io^2*Rrad or Average Power = 1/2*Sinusoidal Current^2*Radiation Resistance. Sinusoidal Current represents the current of amplitude Io in absence of any radiation & Radiation Resistance is the effective resistance of antenna.
