“…Transmitter efficiencies of over 40% are currently found in publications [11], [12], suggesting that there is little room for improvement in this area. However, when taking into account losses in the antenna matching, filtering, and switching circuits, and losses between battery and power amplifier, the overall efficiency quickly drops below 25%.…”
