Calculation will be done after you enter a valid input.

Examples

1

Consider that a mobile phone antenna operates at 30 decibel-milliwatts (dBm).
Convert this power level from decibel-milliwatts to Milliwatts.

Answer

Given:

Power in Decibel-milliwatts = 30 dBm

Converting Power from Decibel-milliwatts to Milliwatts...

The formula to convert from Decibel-milliwatts to Milliwatts is:

Power(Milliwatts) = Math.pow(10,(Power(Decibel-milliwatts)/10))

Substitute given Power(Decibel-milliwatts) = 30 in the above formula.

Power(Milliwatts) = Math.pow(10,(30/10))

Power(Milliwatts) = 1000

Therefore, 30 dBm is equal to 1000 mW.

2

Consider that a Wi-Fi router broadcasts at 20 decibel-milliwatts (dBm).
Convert this signal strength from decibel-milliwatts to Milliwatts.

Answer

Given:

Power in Decibel-milliwatts = 20 dBm

Converting Power from Decibel-milliwatts to Milliwatts...

The formula to convert from Decibel-milliwatts to Milliwatts is:

Power(Milliwatts) = Math.pow(10,(Power(Decibel-milliwatts)/10))

Substitute given Power(Decibel-milliwatts) = 20 in the above formula.

Power(Milliwatts) = Math.pow(10,(20/10))

Power(Milliwatts) = 100

Therefore, 20 dBm is equal to 100 mW.

Decibel-milliwatts

A decibel milliwatt (dBm) is a unit of power level used in radio, microwave, and fiber-optic communication networks. It is a logarithmic unit that expresses power relative to one milliwatt.

Milliwatts

A milliwatt (mW) is a unit of power equal to one thousandth of a watt. It is often used in contexts where power levels are low, such as in electronics and communications.
