Using the antenna factor of a particular antenna, one can compute the theoretical power required to create a specified E-field at a specified distance. Without over specifying the power amplifier (assume Class A), what minimum safety factor should be added to the theoretical values to account for impedance mismatches, cable loss, directional coupler loss, compact anechoic chamber effects (3 m) including loading of the antenna, the allowed 6 dB field variation and any other effects.
