We note that this power gain is a function of the load
admittance YL and the two-port parameters Yij .
This is thus the recipe for calculating the optimal source and
load impedance in to maximize gain

Solution of the above four equations (real/imag) results in the
optimal YS,opt and YL,opt .

use the power gain Gp and take partials with respect to the
load. Let

All gain circles lie on the line given by the angle of Sii∗ . We
can select any desired value of source/load reflection
coefficient to acheive Niknejad
the desired gain.
Power Gain To minimize the
Extended Smith Chart
For |Γ| > 1, we can still employ the Smith Chart if we make
the following mapping. The reflection coefficient for a
negative resistance is given by
−R + jX − Z0 (R + Z0 ) − jX
Γ(−R + jX ) = =
−R + jX + Z0 (R − Z0 ) − jX
1 (R − Z0 ) + jX
∗
=
Γ (R + Z0 ) + jX
We see that Γ can be mapped to the unit circle by taking
1/Γ∗ and reading the resistance value (and noting that it’s
actually negative).
The same is true of the load impedance if |S22 | > 1. Thus the
design procedure is identical to before as long as we avoid
source or load reflection coefficients with real part less than
the critical value.
