Description Usage Arguments Value Author(s) Examples
The field strength levels in most RF-EMF measurement files (e.g. from ExpoM-RF) are given in Volts per meter [V/m]. This function converts field strength values, numeric vectors or variables within dataframes to Power Flux Density values in microWatts per square meter [mW/m²].
1 | convert_Vm_to_mWm2(x,vars,old_suffix,new_suffix)
|
x |
A value, numeric vector or R dataframe that includes the values to be converted. |
vars |
If x is a dataframe, indicate a single variable name OR a vector of variable names for conversion. |
old_suffix |
(Optional, no default) If a suffix was included in your original dataset (e.g. "_Vm"), you can remove this from your converted variables by specifying no new_suffix, or specify a new_suffix (e.g. new_suffix="mWm2") instead. If no old_suffix OR new_suffix is specified, the original variable names are again used for the mW/m² values in the returned dataset. |
new_suffix |
(Optional, no default) Same as old_suffix, see above, e.g. "_mWm2" |
If x is a vector, the result is a vector of the same size with all values converted to mW/m². If x is a dataframe, the result is a dataframe with all values within the indicated variables converted to mW/m².
