AWR2243BOOST: Unit Conversion

Hello,

I am tasked to calculate rcs for an object and confused regarding the unit conversion from:
1. db to linear scale
2. dbm to watt
3. dbfs to watt
4. m2 to db

For these conversion is there any different formula for radio waves or what?

Hi Ajit,

There's no different formula for radio waves, you can use the standard formulas here.

Hello Shruti,

I still couldn't find what does dbfs means and how to convert it to different unit. It is not mentioned anywhere.
Please atleast give the conversion for the same.

I also have a doubt, how can we find received power after post processing is done for an object from matlab plots?

Regards,
Ajit
