0 dB | looks exactly like your reference power |
+3 dB | 2 x reference power - rule of 3s |
-3 dB | 1/2 reference power |
+10 dB | 10 x reference power |
-10 dB | 1/10th reference power |
what is 30 dBm in mw? 1 x 10 = 10mw 10dBm 10 x 10 = 100mw +10dBm = 20 dBm 100 x 10 = 1000mw +10dBm = 30 dBm 36 dBm in mw? 1000 x 2 = 2000mw +3dBm = 33 dBm 2000 x 2 = 4000mw +3dBm = 36 dBm
EIRP (dbm) = radio Tx Power (dBm) - cable loss (dB) + antenna gain (dBi) ERP is same but antenna gain is in dBd
EIRP (dbm) = radio Tx Power (dBm) - cable loss (dB) + antenna gain (dBi) ERP is same but antenna gain is in dBdif you have external antenna, remember to put gain into WLC/IOS/etc, so system will modify output for country regulatory requirements.
