Theory of Power Matching

by János Ladvánszky

Overview

This book describes the development of the power matching problem.  It starts with the derivative-free proof of conjugate matching, goes through the nonlinear, resistive maximum power theorem and its reversal, extension of the concept of equivalence in the case of nonlinear circuits, application of the nonlinear, and resistive maximum power theorem for diode measurement.  The author treats practically important special cases of nonlinear, dynamic power matching with applications, and the most general solution that is not realizable.
