Examples

1

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

Answer

Given:

Power in Decibel-watts = 50 dBW

Converting Power from Decibel-watts to Kilowatts...

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

Power(Kilowatts) = Math.pow(10,(Power(Decibel-watts)/10)) / 1e3

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

Power(Kilowatts) = Math.pow(10,(50/10)) / 1e3

Power(Kilowatts) = 100

Therefore, 50 dBW is equal to 100 kW.

2

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

Answer

Given:

Power in Decibel-watts = 40 dBW

Converting Power from Decibel-watts to Kilowatts...

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

Power(Kilowatts) = Math.pow(10,(Power(Decibel-watts)/10)) / 1e3

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

Power(Kilowatts) = Math.pow(10,(40/10)) / 1e3

Power(Kilowatts) = 10

Therefore, 40 dBW is equal to 10 kW.

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.

Kilowatts

A kilowatt (kW) is equal to 1,000 watts. It is commonly used to express the power output of engines and the power consumption of electrical devices. For example, household appliances and electric vehicles are often rated in kilowatts.
