A microwave link includes two sites that are 10 km apart and uses a center frequency of 9 GHz. On either transmitter or receiver side, a 100-m transmission line that has an attenuation per unit length of 0.01 dB/m is connected to an amplifier and a parabolic reflector antenna. Other losses caused by connectors and insertions incurred on one side amounts to 3 dB. Antenna has a power gain of 20 dB. If the output of the transmitter amplifier is 30 dBm, what is the received signal level (in dBm) at the input of the receiver amplifier?
