This means that P2 = 1/2 P1. In this case, the attenuation (loss of power) can be calculated as Solution 10 log10 (P2/P1) = 10 log10 (0.5P1/P1) = 10 log10 (0.5)  = 10(–0.3) = –3 dB Example 13 Imagine a signal travels through an amplifier and its power is increased ten times. This means that P2 = 10*P1. In this case, the amplification (gain of power) can be calculated as 10 log10 (P2/P1) = 10 log10 (10P1/P1) =
