Weighted noise power in dBa, measured across the receiver of a 302-type or similar subscriber set, by a noise measuring set with HA1-receiver weighting.
Note: HA1 weighting is no longer used in DOD applications.

Noise power in dBa referenced to or measured at zero transmission level point (0TLP), also called a point of zero relative transmission level (0 dBr).
Note: It is preferred to convert noise readings from dBa to dBa0, as this makes it unnecessary to know or state the relative transmission level at the point of actual measurement.

Abbreviation. dB relative to the carrier power.

Abbreviation. In the expression of antenna gain, the number of decibels of gain of an antenna referenced to the zero dB gain of a free-space isotropic radiator.

Abbreviation. dB referenced to one milliwatt.
Note 1: dBm is used in communication work as a measure of absolute power values. Zero dBm equals one milliwatt.
Note 2: In DOD practice, unweighted measurement is normally understood, applicable to a certain bandwidth, which must be stated or implied.
Note 3: In European practice, psophometric weighting may be implied, as indicated by… (Read More →)

Noise power in dBm, measured with psophometric weighting where where pWp is power in picowatts psophometrically weighted and dBa is the weighted noise power in dB referenced to
3. 16 picowatts.

Power in dBm referred to or measured at a zero transmission level point (0TLP).
Note 1: A 0TLP is also called a point of zero relative transmission level (0 dBr0).
Note 2: Some international documents use dBm0 to mean noise power in dBm0p (psophometrically weighted dBm0). In the United States, dBm0 is not so used.

Noise power in dBm0, measured by a psophometer or noise measuring set having psophometric weighting.
