Path Loss Coefficient Formula

Path Loss Coefficient = Mobile Reciever Carrier Power/(Transmitter Reciever Distance^-4)
α = C/(d^-4)

What is propagation constant give its relation with wavelength?

The propagation constant depends on the optical frequency (or wavelength) of the light. The frequency dependence of its imaginary part determines the group delay and the chromatic dispersion of the waveguide. ... It is then also common to introduce a normalized propagation constant which can only vary between 0 and 1.

How to Calculate Path Loss Coefficient?
