Quality Factor

Applicable units are those of quantitykind:QualityFactor

"Quality Factor", of a resonant circuit, is a measure of the "goodness" or quality of a resonant circuit. A higher value for this figure of merit correspondes to a more narrow bandwith, which is desirable in many applications. More formally, $Q$ is the ratio of power stored to power dissipated in the circuit reactance and resistance, respectively

If $\underline{Z} = R + jX$, then $Q = \left | X \right |/R$, where $\underline{Z}$ is impedance, $R$ is resistance, and $X$ is reactance.
