Site Update - Long Range WiFi Link

Recently I made some updates to the page explaining the process of planning long range WiFi communications. The following changes where made.

Change 1, brought to my attention by a reader of my website. It relates to the NZ regulations of PtMP systems.

"As each client station is receiving from and transmitting to the one station (the central access point) the client station is essentially employing a point-to-point service and so, in the frequency range 5.725 GHz to 5.850 GHz is allowed the higher power limit of up to 1 Watt peak transmitter power, with up to 200 Watts (e.i.r.p.) peak radiated power. Note that there is a peak power spectral density limitation of less than 17 dBm in any 1 MHz bandwidth. Client equipment on other frequencies covered by the Short Range Device GURL are limited in the same manner as the central access point."

Change 2, user friendly link calculations.
I added calculators written in javascript to the page. Here is an example:

Free Space Path Loss

It is as simple as changing the example values into those of your own and the result will be returned to you.

NOTE: Even though I use a HTML5 function to look for user input it doesn't work in every browser. The Edge browser from windows 10 doesn't seem to work. Chrome and Safari work fine.

If you have any suggestions for website improvements or suggestions for blog post please let me know in the comment section below.
