Assuming that the received power is equal to the sensitivity of the victim link receiver, then the radius Rmax can be determined for the wanted radio path by the following equation.
(Eq. 163)
...
(Eq. 164)
where:
- Fmedian: propagation loss not including slow fading, i.e. path loss without variations option;
- Fslowfading(X%): slow fading margin for X% coverage loss;
...
The distribution of the path loss can be expressed in a general way by the following equation: 
where Q is the cumulative distribution for Rmax and the resulting mean path loss and an additional path loss due to availability or coverage . The availability y of the system is linked to the coverage loss through the simple relation y = 1 – x. Assuming that slow fading can be approximated by log-normal distribution, i.e. median mean, the relation 
can be introduced where stands b stands for a multiple of the well known standard deviation (sigma). A few examples for illustration: At a 95 % coverage, results b results in 1.96, for 99 % in 2.58, for 99.9 % in 3.29, or b=1 68 % coverage, for for b=2 for 95.5 %. The exact values can be easily determined by using the inverse Gaussian function.
Then the equation:
(Eq. 165)

The determination of the zero of function v, is made through a recursive method such as regula-falsi used in logarithmic scale which should yield a better precision. The solution of such a method provides:
(Eq. 166)
In this case, formulas given for have to be inverted.
