Getting Event Loss (Four-Point and Least-Square Approximation)

 Four-point event loss: the LSA method is used to fit a straight line to the

backscatter data within the two regions defined by markers a, A and

b, B, that is over the regions to the left and to the right of the event

bordered by markers A and B, respectively.

The two fitted lines are then extrapolated toward the center of the

event and the loss event is directly read from the drop in power

between the two lines.
