+====Simulation example====
+As example, let us consider a very simple, purely resistive network, consisting of three resistors:
+{{:different_power_gains-example-network.png|}}
+//Figure 6: Simple, purely resistive, example network//
+We simulate the three gains in LT Spice with a DC voltage source of 12 V, as function of the generator resistance and the load resistance.
+{{:different_power_gains-spice-simulation.png|}}
+//Figure 7: Schematics in LT Spice for the three gains, for the example network, with variable load and/or generator resistance {R}.//
+We first simulate the operating power gain $G_P$ as function of the load resistance. This gain is independent on the generator resistance. In the simulation, a generator resistance of 8.02773 ohm was chosen (see further), but this value doesn't matter for the simulation of the operating power gain $G_P$.
+The graph below (green) shows that a maximum of $G_P$ = 10.9% is reached for a load of 14.5 ohm.

+//Figure 8: Simulation results of the gains as function of varying generator or load resistance (logarithmic axis) for the given example.//
+Next, the available gain $G_A$ is simulated as function of varying generator resistance (this gains is independent on the value of the load). We find a maximum of 10.9% at a generator resistance of 8.0 ohm.
+Finally, the transducer gain $G_T$ is simulated, first for varying generator resistance, and next for varying load. The generator/load resistance in each non-varying case is chosen to be the optimal value for the other gains. The graphs are identical to the other gains ([[explanation]]). A maximum of 10.9% is found for the optimal generator and load resistance of 8.0 and 14.5 ohm.
