Other Definitions of Efficiency in Antennas
The IEEE standard defines several other antenna parameters which include the word efficiency, such as
- aperture illumination efficiency for aperture-antennas.
- polarization efficiency; polarization mismatch factor.
These are unconnected and should not be confused with radiation efficiency, which is the most commonly used and implied term.

Famous quotes containing the words definitions and/or efficiency:
“What I do not like about our definitions of genius is that there is in them nothing of the day of judgment, nothing of resounding through eternity and nothing of the footsteps of the Almighty.”
—G.C. (Georg Christoph)
“I’ll take fifty percent efficiency to get one hundred percent loyalty.”
