USEFUL CALCULATORS

Convert dBW to Watts

Enter Value (dBW) :    =   Watts   

Convert Watts to dBW

Enter Value (Watts) :    =   dBW   

Calculating ERP and EIRP

Enter the Transmitter Power Output (TPO) :
Enter the Antenna Gain :
Enter TX mode :



 
Effective Radiated Power (ERP) =   Watts /  dBW
Effective Isotropic Radiated Power (EIRP) =   Watts /  dBW
