Hi Steve,

Yes, I am working on electrical signal. So should I change the equation defined 
in the OIF-CEI mask when calculating the power sum crosstalk?

10 log(10) (power ratio) gives dB power correctly.  If you are working 
with optical signals then you are working with optical power values and 
10 log(10)(power ratio) is the correct expression.  If you are working 
with electrical signals, 20 lot(10)(voltage ratio) gives dB power for 
voltages working into the same reference impedance.
