volt_gain_max()

This measurement determines the ratio of the voltage across the load to the voltage available from the source at maximum power transfer

Syntax
y = volt_gain_max(S, Zs, Zl, Zref)

Arguments

Name	Description	Range	Type	Required
S	2 X 2 scattering matrix	(-∞, ∞)	complex	yes
Zs	input impedance	(-∞, ∞)	real, complex	yes
Zl	Output impedance	(-∞, ∞)	real, complex	yes
Zref	reference impedance	(-∞, ∞)	real, complex	yes

Examples

vGain = volt_gain_max(S, 50, 75)
Zref defaults to 50 ohms
vGain1 = volt_gain(S, 50, 75, 75)
Zref = 75 ohms

Note/Equations

The network-parameter transformation function stos() can be used to change the normalizing impedance of the scattering matrix.
