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:
“Power corrupts the few, while weakness corrupts the many.... The resentment of the weak does not spring from any injustice done to them but from the sense of their inadequacy and impotence. They hate not wickedness but weakness. When it is in their power to do so, the weak destroy weakness wherever they see it.”
—Eric Hoffer (1902–1983)
“We go to gain a little patch of ground
That hath in it no profit but the name.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
