I am working on the benchmark_tx.py file, I know the transmit power for
RXF2400 is 50mW. But is this number corresponding to the option
-tx-amplitude setting to the default value 12000? If it is, i could
calculate the real tx power after i changed the tx-amplitude parameter.
Another interesting question is that in receive_path.py file, there is a
parameter called threshold to control the process of carrier sensing,
but that parameter is in dB and the default value is set to 30dB! Does
it mean the real threshold value is set to 1000 Watt? That would be too
great! It is impossible! If it were not in Watt, is it in mW? I am
confused, could anyone tell me a little bit about this unit definition
in USRP?

Assuming a linear amplifier, the power of your modulated signal is
equal to its magnitude squared.

It really refers to the dynamic range captured at the ADC.
