From 42ff76bdb0bfe0675da507a35d893c8aa7c7a403 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Mauro Carvalho Chehab Date: Mon, 16 Dec 2013 21:45:19 -0300 Subject: [PATCH] [media] dib8000: make a better estimation for dBm Use multiple linear segments to better interpolate the dBm for the signal strength. The table that converts from linear strength to dB was empirically determinated with the help of a signal generator (DTA-2111). The entries from -35dBm to -22.5dBm were taken using just the signal generator and the board. For the entries from -36dBm to -51dBm, a 16 dB tap was used, in order to extend its range. Signals below to -51dBm are just linearly interpolated. Signed-off-by: Mauro Carvalho Chehab Acked-by: Patrick Boettcher --- Reading git-format-patch failed
