RFLink.GetSignalToNoiseRatio(TimeSpan, Variable) Method

Top

Description

Returns the signal to noise ratio (C/N) for the power in dB. This solution is based on the solution from ComputeReceivedPower if the second argument is Calculated, comes from the provided receiver desired received power if the second argument is FromReceiver, and is calculated from the gain to noise temperature ratio (G/T) if the second argument is a numeric value.
