Iphone 4 802.11n site survey specs

I've seen a similar question asked so I know I'm not the only one wondering. Is there any information on the Iphone 4's real 802.11 specs? Not just it's 802.11n, but transmit power, RX sensitivity, antenna gain, MCS info. I ask because I'm trying to plan a wireless network around it a those number would help to avoid overdeployment. I get that it may vary but having any type of number to work from is better than guessing.

iPhone 4, iOS 5.0.1

I found that the wifi chip is the Broadcom BCM4329. The datasheet for it is at http://pdf.eccn.com/pdfs/Datasheets/Broadcom/BCM4329.pdf . It lists the maximum xmit power at 18 dBm. Doesn't say anything about wifi RX sensitivity. I'd assume an antenna gain of 2.14 dBi.
