Power Gain - Available Power Gain

Available Power Gain

The available power gain of a two-port network, GA, is defined as:

where

  • Pload,max is the maximum available average power at the load
  • Psource,max is the maximum power available from the source

Similarly Pload,max may only obtained when the load impedance is the complex conjugate of the output impedance of the network.

    The power of consumer goods ... has been engendered by the so-called liberal and progressive demands of freedom, and, by appropriating them, has emptied them of their meaning, and changed their nature.
    Pier Paolo Pasolini (1922–1975)

    I find myself ... hoping a total end of all the unhappy divisions of mankind by party-spirit, which at best is but the madness of many for the gain of a few.
