Link coupling is used in r-f amplifiers to?

Link coupling is used to transfer energy between two r-f circuits which for whatever reason cannot be located near to each other. The method used in link coupling is a wire loop which stretches between the two stages, terminating at each end in a coil of few turns. At the output of the first stage, this wire loop will act as a step-down transformer, and at the input of the next stage it will act as a step-up transformer. To work in this manner the loop terminations must be positioned next to the inductor of the r-f tank circuit.
