title: Is the median or mean of a set of values in Decibels (dB) taken directly or conversion to linear is required
body: <p>I need to take the median of a set of values of path loss (dB) in MatLab. Does anyone know that they shall be converted to linear units like Watts before their median is calculated by the formula. The result is different in both the cases but i don't know which one is correct.</p>
