Calculate power in dBm

Home     Previous     Up     Next

Q3. A radio signal has an output power of 10 milliwatts (mW). What is the power level in dBm?

A. 2.5 dBm

B. 25 dBm

C. 10 dBm

D. 250 dBm

Correct Answer: C. 10 dBm

Explanation:

To calculate power in dBm, use the formula: 

dBm = 10 * log(P / 1 mW)

Substitute P = 10 mW into the formula: 

dBm = 10 * log(25 / 1) = 10 * log(10) = 10 * 1 = 10dBm

So, the power level is 10 dBm.
