If transmitter power is increased from 200 Watts to 400 Watts how do you convert to Db form?

Decibels (db) is relative power, log base 2, times 3. Increasing power from 200 watts to 400 watts is doubling power, so the decibel change is +3 db.800 watts would be +6 db, 1600 watts would be +9 db, 100 watts would be -3 db, 50 watts would be -6 db, and so on.


Prove dbm plus dbm equals db?

The decibel scale is a logarithmic scale where each change in three dB represents a power factor change of two. (3 dB is power times two, 6 dB is power times four, 9 dB is power times 8, etc. Similarly, -3dB is power divided by two, -6 dB is power divided by four, etc.) Zero dB is assigned some arbitrary reference power. One example is 1 mV across 600 ohms. If you double the voltage into a constant resistance, the power quadruples, so 2 mV would be +6 dB, 4 mV would be +12 dB, etc. The letter after dB is the reference power. In the case of dBm, it means that 0 dB is 1 milliwatt, so 2 milliwatt is +3 dB, etc. There are many dB scales, such as dBa, used in sound measurements. Still, fundamentally, 3 dB is a doubling of power, -3 dB is a halving of power, so, for any arbitrary scale, say dBq, then saying +6dBq is saying a power four times higher than 0 dBq. In the end, dBm plus dBm is delta dB, with no scale.

How 3db dandwidth equals half power bandwidth?

"3 dB" is a nickname for "1/2 power". "1/2 power" in dB = 10 log(1/2) = 10 (-0.30103) = -3.01 dB

Half as loud in decibels is about a 10 dB decrease. For example, if a sound is initially at 70 dB, half as loud would be around 60 dB.

How loud is 100 db?

100 dB is considered very loud and can cause hearing damage with extended exposure. It is approximately as loud as a chainsaw, a jackhammer, or a rock concert. It is recommended to use ear protection in environments with noise levels reaching 100 dB.

94 dB is considered to be loud and can cause hearing damage with prolonged exposure. It is similar to the noise level of a motorcycle or a lawnmower at close range.


How loud are sound waves?

The loudness of sound waves is measured in units called decibels (dB). The range of decibels humans can typically hear without discomfort is around 0 dB to 120 dB. Sounds above 120 dB can cause hearing damage.
