A Scattering-Parameters {S-Parameters) based macromodel of distributed-lumped networks is presented. The networb can include capacitive cutsets, inductive loops, RLC meshes, and lossy transmission lines. An ef)cienl network reduction algorithm is &veloped to reduce [he original nelwork into a network containing one multipor[ component together with the sources and loads of interest. The S-Parameters of the circuit components are approximated by Taylor series to simpllfi the reduction process. Exponentially Decayed Polynomial Function (EDPF) approximation is used to derive the macromodel, the higher accuracy can be obtained by selecting titrte constant according to an error cri[erion. The ntacrontodel is always stable for a stabte sys[em and very jkxible that the accuracy of the model can be controlled by adjusting [he order of approximation. The experimental results indicate that our model can approach the accuracy of SPICE with one or two order less computing time.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
