Annex 5, § 14 of Recommendation ITU-R P.1546-5 gives a correction to account for the difference between the two antenna heights above ground. This correction is calculated as follows.

                                                                                      

Mathinline
body${\rm{Correction}}\;\; = \;\;20\log \left( {\frac{d}{{{d_{slope}}}}} \right)$
                            dB                                          (YY)

...

Where terrain information is not available, use:

...

                                     

Mathinline
body ${d_{slope}} = \sqrt {{d^2} + {{10}^{ - 6}}{{\left( {{h_a} - {h_2}} \right)}^2}} $
                           km                                        (YYb)

...

If the horizontal distance is less than or equal to 0.04 km the field strength, E, is given by:

                                                                                

Mathinline
body$E = 106.9 - 20\log \left( {{d_{slope}}} \right)$
                             dB(mV/m)                                     (ZZa)

Otherwise

Mathinline
bodyE = {E_{inf}} + \left( {{E_{sup}} - {E_{inf}}} \right) \cdot \log \left ( \frac{d_{slope}}{d_{inf}}\right )/log \left ( \frac{d_{sup}}{d_{inf}}\right )
                              dB(mV/m)        (ZZb)
