摘要：
This paper investigates the errors that can result when applying two different definitions of power-added efficiency to RF power amplifiers. The first definition is generic to all multiple-port networks and is simply the ratio of the total output power to total input power. The second definition is specific to RF power amplifiers and widely regarded as the industry standard. It has been found that, for power amplifier applications, the error can be highly significant.
