The power amplifier is usually the last stage in a transmitting device's radio frequency chain before the antenna.
This base model is HermesPy's default power amplifier model, which is a linear amplifier with a constant gain and
therfore no distortion

.. math::

   s'(t) = s(t) \text{,}

which may be overwritten by classes inheriting from this base.
