When a decibel value is computed by comparing a power value to 1 mW it is called as? Correct Answer dBm

When the gain or attenuation of a circuit is expressed in decibels, implicit is a comparison between two values, the output and the input. An often used reference level in communication is 1 mW. When a decibel value is computed by comparing a power value to 1 mW, the result is a value called the dBm. It is computed with the standard power decibel formula with 1 mW as the denominator of the ratio.
