How can I get the impulse response about received signal power by using Winprop API

Hello, everyone. Recently, I have been studying how to use the WinProp API, but I have encountered a problem. I found that the WinProp API cannot help me output impulse response data containing the received signal power. The channel impulse response it outputs is represented in field strength. How can I obtain channel impulse response data containing the received signal power like this ↓image

I know there is a way I can save the impulse response values in ASCII-File by right clicking the impulse response window, so how can I get the multi-path Delay and Power while using API ? or is there any way I can get Delay and Signal Level of each ray while using API ?↓image

    Hi Kayiu,

    If you do not manage to get the channel impulse response in dBm you can use and implement the following conversion formula after obtaining the results through the API:

    Rx power [dBm] = e [dBuV/m] – 77.21 – 20*log(f/MHz)

    This is a general formula (ignoring the Rx antenna gain, i.e. assuming isotropic receiving antenna).

    Best Regards,
