Hybrid $S$-Parameters for Transmission Line Networks With Linear/Nonlinear Load Terminations Subject to Arbitrary Excitations

An Efficient 1-D Periodic Boundary Integral Equation Technique to Analyze Radiation onto Straight and Meandering Microstrip Lines

“…Using the Baum-Liu-Tesche (BLT) equation, which was first introduced in [30], for describing (multiconductor) transmission lines, the voltages and currents at loads connected to the lines can be estimated. Also, conjunction with advanced EMI analysis techniques for plane wave excitation [31], or even for near-zone illumination [32], can be investigated. The (application) examples given above validate the presented technique but represent idealized scenarios, using perfect terminations and plane-wave illumination.…”

Efficient full-wave modeling of radiative near-field interactions in semi-anechoic conditions

“…In [5], a hybrid method, based on the Finite-Difference Time-Domain (FDTD) algorithm and a field coupling model of transmission lines are employed. Furthermore, [6] and [7] discuss susceptibility of transmission line networks with linear/nonlinear load terminations. Another way to reduce computational resources is by so-called Domain Decomposition Methods (DDMs).…”

Analysis of Electromagnetic Field Coupling to Microstrip Line Connected With Nonlinear Components

“…Xie proposed a hybrid FDTD-SPICE method [22] to analyze lossless TLs with nonlinear or time-varying loads illuminated by a non-uniform electromagnetic, in which effective voltage and current sources are obtained first using field-to-TL coupling method after the incident fields to the lines are calculated using FDTD, and then imported into SPICE to deal with the nonlinear loads [23]. Bayram mentioned nonlinear loads in the hybrid S-parameters method used for field-to-TL coupling [24], but again the nonlinear loads had to be handled by HSPICE or ADS.…”
