1/ If the amplitude ratio, N in decibels, of an electrical system is given by the formula.

N = 10log

And the power is given by

P =

Show that for matched input and output resistances the output voltage Vo is related to the input voltage Vi by:

Vo = Vi10

If N is increased by 6db, show that the output voltage is approximately doubled for the same input. Following to polar form giving the arguments in degrees

===============================================================================

Answer:

It is given that P = V^2 / R

Let Po = Vo^2 / R and Pi = Vi^2 / R

Substituting in (1),

N = 10 log[(Vo^2 / R) / Vi^2 / R]

N = 10 log[(Vo^2 / Vi^2 ]

N = 10 log (Vo /Vi)^2 = 20 log (Vo/Vi)

N = 20 log ...
