  2. Signal strength in telecommunications - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Signal_strength_in...

    For very low-power systems, such as mobile phones, signal strength is usually expressed in dB-microvolts per metre (dBμV/m) or in decibels above a reference level of one milliwatt . In broadcasting terminology, 1 mV/m is 1000 μV/m or 60 dBμ (often written dBu). Examples. 100 dBμ or 100 mV/m: blanketing interference may occur on some receivers

  3. Effective radiated power - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Effective_radiated_power

    It radiates a far field signal strength of in its direction of maximum radiation along the z-axis. The green sphere is the radiation pattern of an ideal isotropic antenna that radiates the same maximum signal strength as the directive antenna does. The transmitter power that would have to be applied to the isotropic antenna to radiate this much ...

  4. S meter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/S_meter

    A weak signal with signal strength of S2 corresponds to received power of -115 dBm or 0.40 microvolts RMS in 50 ohms on HF. A strong signal with signal strength of S8 corresponds to received power of -79 dBm or 25 microvolts RMS in 50 ohms on HF. Some signal generators are calibrated in dB above 1uV and have an output in emf.

  5. Received signal strength indicator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Received_signal_strength...

    Cellular signal strength of -74dBm (or 66 asu) displayed on a smartphone.Also shown: signal bars of two cellular networks, and signal bars of a Wi-Fi network. In telecommunications, received signal strength indicator or received signal strength indication [1] (RSSI) is a measurement of the power present in a received radio signal.

  6. Mobile phone signal - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mobile_phone_signal

    A mobile phone signal (also known as reception and service) is the signal strength (measured in dBm) received by a mobile phone from a cellular network (on the downlink). Depending on various factors, such as proximity to a tower, any obstructions such as buildings or trees, etc. this signal strength will vary. Most mobile devices use a set of ...

  7. Signal-to-noise ratio - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Signal-to-noise_ratio

    But in signal processing and communication, one usually assumes that = [3] so that factor is usually not included while measuring power or energy of a signal. This may cause some confusion among readers, but the resistance factor is not significant for typical operations performed in signal processing, or for computing power ratios.

  8. Network analyzer (electrical) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Network_analyzer_(electrical)

    The network analyzer needs a test signal, and a signal generator or signal source will provide one. Older network analyzers did not have their own signal generator, but had the ability to control a stand-alone signal generator using, for example, a GPIB connection. Nearly all modern network analyzers have a built-in signal generator.

  9. List of common EMC test standards - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_common_EMC_test...

    CISPR is the acronym of Comité International Spécial des Perturbations Radio, [1] or the International Special Committee for Radio Protection of IEC. CISPR Standards aim to the protection of radio reception in the range 9 kHz to 400 GHz from interference caused by operation of electrical or electronic appliances and systems in the electromagnetic environment.
