Directivity is defined as the power radiated per unit solid angle in a particular direction relative to the total power radiated by the antenna. Gain is defined as the power radiated per unit solid angle in a particular direction relative to the total power accepted from the source. See the gain & directivity slides for an illustration of the concept.
