Examples

1

Consider that a radio station transmitter operates at 50 decibel-watts (dBW).
Convert this power level from decibel-watts to Decibel-milliwatts.

Answer

Given:

Power in Decibel-watts = 50 dBW

Converting Power from Decibel-watts to Decibel-milliwatts...

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

Power(Decibel-milliwatts) = Power(Decibel-watts) + 30

Substitute given Power(Decibel-watts) = 50 in the above formula.

Power(Decibel-milliwatts) = 50 + 30

Power(Decibel-milliwatts) = 80

Therefore, 50 dBW is equal to 80 dBm.

2

Consider that a satellite transmits signals at 40 decibel-watts (dBW).
Convert this power level from decibel-watts to Decibel-milliwatts.

Answer

Given:

Power in Decibel-watts = 40 dBW

Converting Power from Decibel-watts to Decibel-milliwatts...

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

Power(Decibel-milliwatts) = Power(Decibel-watts) + 30

Substitute given Power(Decibel-watts) = 40 in the above formula.

Power(Decibel-milliwatts) = 40 + 30

Power(Decibel-milliwatts) = 70

Therefore, 40 dBW is equal to 70 dBm.

Decibel-watts

A decibel watt (dBW) is a unit of power level relative to one watt, expressed in decibels. It is commonly used in telecommunications and audio engineering to describe power levels in a logarithmic scale.

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.
