3GPP NR FR1 Beamformed Sector Antenna Pattern Mask Compliance Checker calculator computes Mask violation margin in dB using the defined engineering formula and the input values provided. Mask violation margin is expressed in dB. No universal acceptance threshold is defined by this calculator.
Worked Example
Verified calculation
Given:
- Azimuth angle from boresight = 0
- Elevation angle from boresight = 0
- Measured antenna gain relative to isotropic = -2
Expected Result:
- Mask violation margin = 2.000001
Engineering Interpretation:
Under the given input conditions, the calculated result is: Mask violation margin = 2.000001 dB.
The actual numerical result is computed by the Runtime engine using the persisted tool definition. The values shown here come from deterministically validated test cases.
Formula / Method
mask violation margin = max(0.0, abs(max(0.0, pow(10, (azimuth angle from boresight - 30.0)/10.0) * pow(10, (elevation angle from boresight - 30.0)/10.0) - measured antenna gain relative to isotropic)), abs(max(0.0, -30.0 - measured antenna gain relative to isotropic)))Formula family: formula_telecom_3gpp_nr_fr1_beamformed_sector_antenna_pattern_mask_compliance_checker
