Consider the Friis' transmission equation $P_R=\left(P_T G_T G_R \lambda^2\right) /(4 \pi D)^2$, where $P_R$ and $P_T$ are the received and the transmitted powers, respectively.

$G_T$ and $G_R$ are the gain of transmitting and receiving antennas, respectively, $D$ is the distance between the transmitting and receiving antennas, and $\lambda$ is the wavelength in free space.

Given: $G_T=G_R=1.0, \lambda=0.30 \mathrm{~m}$ and $P_T=+10 \mathrm{dBm}$.

Choose the distance (D), in km , from the following options at which the received power, $P_R=-90 \mathrm{dBm}$ ?

A

$\frac{15}{4 \pi}$

B

$\frac{15}{2 \pi}$

C

$\frac{75}{2 \pi}$

D

$\frac{3}{4 \pi}$
