Abstract :
This paper presents a new condition to derive a maximum output power from a generator with a nonlinear output conductance to a nonlinear load. This condition is satisfied with a formula that an output differential conductance is equal to the load conductance. This formula would be quite useful for a design of high-power amplifiers and oscillators.
