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.

Famous quotes containing the words power and/or gain:
“What I am anxious to do is to get the best bill possible with the least amount of friction.... I wish to avoid [splitting our party]. I shall do all in my power to retain the corporation tax as it is now and also force a reduction of the [tariff] schedules. It is only when all other efforts fail that I’ll resort to headlines and force the people into this fight.”
—William Howard Taft (1857–1930)
“I could lecture on dry oak leaves; I could, but who would hear me? If I were to try it on any large audience, I fear it would be no gain to them, and a positive loss to me. I should have behaved rudely toward my rustling friends.”
