  • Abstract
    The dc to RF conversion efficiency for reflection amplifiers and locked oscillators employing negative resistance devices such as transferred-electron effect and avalanche diodes is discussed. It is shown that one particular definition of efficiency is more appropriate than another definition sometimes employed.
