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.
