//Variable Initialization
tx_h = 49.0 //Transmitting antenna height (m)
rx_h = 25.0 //Receiving antenna height (m)
f = 100e6 //Frequency (Hz)
tx_p = 100.0 //Transmitted power (W)

//Calculation

d0 = sqrt(2*(4.0/3.0)*(a/1000.0))*(sqrt(tx_h)+sqrt(rx_h)) //Line of Sight (LOS) distance (km)

//There is an error in the calculation of (88*sqrt(tx_p)/(wave_lt*(d**2))) where four orders of magnitude are ignored in the resulting calculation.
