% Computes the power received by an antenna.
This just computes the losses due to distance. Everything else is
ideal. It is useful for rough sizing of antennas. The example in the
demo is for space to earth power transmission at GHz.
The default output is a 2D mesh plot.
Type PowerReceived for a demo.
