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.
