**Learning Goal:** This problem shows how the power dissipated in the load depends on the value of the load resistance. It also helps to understand the condition required for maximum power transfer.Smartphones use "bars" to indicate the strength of the cellular signal. Fewer "bars" translate to slow or no connectivity. But what do these "bars" actually stand for? Voltage, current? Well, not quite. Good radio (a cellular modem is a particular type of radio) reception depends on the power received at the receiver. Communication theory tells us that higher received signal power enables higher data rates. To that end, we design a receiver that maximizes the power received, and hence connection speed. A typical receiver consists of an antenna and receiver circuits. The antenna receives the radio waves propagating in space, and converts it into electrical voltages and currents. A very good abstraction used by circuit designers is to model the antenna as a voltage source \( V_S \) with a series resistance \( R_S \). The typical values of \( V_S \) in a real cellular receiver are in the range of micro- or milli-volts (\( 10^{-6} \) and \( 10^{-3} \), respectively) and the typical values of resistance \( R_S \) are usually 50Ω or 75Ω, depending on how the antenna is designed. The receiver circuits are quite complex and will be covered in detail in EE142 “Integrated Circuits for Communications”. However, a standard abstraction is to model these receiver circuits as a load resistance \( R_L \) to the antenna, as shown in the figure below.![Circuit Diagram](attachment://transcription_image.png)**Figure Details:** The figure shows a circuit with an antenna modeled as a voltage source \( V_S \) with a series resistance \( R_S \).

A typical receiver consists of an antenna and receiver circuits. The antenna receives the radio waves propagating in space, and converts it into electrical voltages and currents. A very good abstraction used by circuit designers is to model the antenna as a voltage source Vs, with a series resistance Rs. The typical values of Vs in a real cellular receiver are in the range of micro- or milli-volts (10-“ and 10-, respectively) and the typical values of resistance Rs are usually 502 or 752, depending on how the antenna is designed. The receiver circuits are quite complex and will be covered in detail in EE142 "Integrated Circuits for Communications".
