differt.em.compute_received_power

compute_received_power(fields, z_0=376.73031341259, coherent=True, axis=None)

Compute the received power from the received fields (in dBW).

Parameters:

• fields (Complex[Array, "*batch"]) – The complex received fields.

• z_0 (Float[ArrayLike, ""] | float) – The reference impedance.

• coherent (bool) – Whether to sum coherently (vector sum of fields before power) or non-coherent (power sum of individual fields). Only active if axis is not None.

• axis (int | None) – The axis along which to sum the fields. If None, no sum is performed.

Return type:

Float[Array, "..."]

Returns:

The received power in dBW.
