title: Maximum transmission range vs maximum interference distance
body: <p>I am wondering if the theoretical maximum transmission range under Omnet++ (veins framework) is the same as the maximum interference distance.</p>
  
  <p>I want to confirm some calculations done before by another person, Last one concludes that the transmission range is equal to :</p>
  
  <ul>
  <li>127m for Txpower = -80dbm &amp; sensitivity = 10mW  </li>
  <li>300m for Txpower = -80dbm &amp; sensitivity = 15.5mW  </li>
  <li>1000m for Txpower = -94dbm &amp; sensitivity = 20mW</li>
  </ul>
  
  <p>For all calculations: path loss coeffcient alpha = 2 &amp; frequency = 5890Mhz</p>
  
  <p>On my side, I get respectively 127m, 159m and 907m. I am not able to know why to much difference. I use the free space path loss formula.</p>
  
  <p>Can someone confirm to me these result ?</p>
