Hi all,
This might be a very silly question for most but I have a setup which sends an IF signal with LO signal to a mixer (up-converter) and converts the RF signal to IF signal using a down-converter mixer. I know the power of the signal I am sending to the down-converter (RF signal in dBm) and I am calculating the power of the IF signal received after down-conversion (using this: https://uk.tek.com/blog/calculating-rf-power-iq-samples). Now how do I convert the output power of IF signal in dBm to S21 parameter in absolute units?
Thank you in advance!
