INTRODUCTION A two-port network (a kind of four-terminal network or quadripole) is an electrical network (circuit) or device with two pairs of terminals to connect to external circuits. Two For the general case of an N-port network, terminals constitute a port if the currents applied to them satisfy the essential requirement known as the port condition: the electric current entering one terminal must equal the current emerging from the The input impedance of a two-port network is given other terminal on the same port. The ports constitute by: interfaces where the network connects to other networks, the points where signals are applied or outputs are taken. In a two-port network, often port 1 where ZL is the impedance of the load connected to is considered the input port and port 2 is considered port two.

HO: Microwave Switches HO: The Microwave Switch Spec Sheet We can combine fixed attenuators with microwave switches to create very important and useful devices—the variable (digital) attenuator. HO: Attenuators HO: The Digital Attenuator Spec Sheet We typically make switches and voltage controlled attenuators with PIN diodes.

  • ! ! ! 4.14 Impedance Transformation Equation
    IMPEDANCE TRANSFORMATION EQUATION 101 4.14 IMPEDANCE TRANSFORMATION EQUATION One of the most common tasks in microwave engineering is the determination of how a load impedance ZL is transformed to a new input impedance ZIN by a length of uniform transmission line of characteristic impedance Z0 and electri- cal length y (Fig. 4.14-1). To simplify this derivation, we assume that the line length is lossless. With the choice of x ¼ 0 at the load, the input to the line is at x ¼l, and the input impedance there is jbl Àjbl V ðx ¼lÞ e þ GLe Z Z x l Z 4:14-1 IN ¼ ð ¼Þ¼ ¼ 0 jbl Àjbl ð Þ I ðx ¼lÞ e À GLe jbl Now substitute GL ¼ðZL À Z0Þ=ðZL þ Z0Þ, bl ¼ y, the identities e ¼ cos bl þ j sin bl and eÀjbl ¼ cos bl À j sin bl into (4.14-1), and remove cancel- ing terms to get 2ZL cos y þ j2Z0 sin y ZIN ¼ Z0 2Z0 cos y þ j2ZL sin y ð4:14-2Þ ZL þ jZ0 tan y ZIN ¼ Z0 Z0 þ jZL tan y Similar reasoning can be used to evaluate the input impedance when the trans- mission line has finite losses. The result is ZL þ Z0 tanh gl ZIN ¼ Z0 ð4:14-3Þ Z0 þ ZL tanh gl This is one of the most important equations in microwave engineering and is called the impedance transformation equation. Remarkably, (4.14-2) and (4.14-3) have exactly the same format when derived in terms of admittance.

  • Attenuation & Attenuator
    ATTENUATION & ATTENUATOR Definitions Attenuation is the reduction in amplitude and intensity of a signal. An attenuator is an electronic device that reduces the amplitude or power of a signal without appreciably distorting its waveform. Basics Attenuation is the reduction in amplitude and intensity of a signal. Signals may be attenuated exponentially by transmission through a medium, in which case attenuation is usually reported in dB with respect to distance traveled through the medium. Attenuation can also be understood to be the opposite of amplification. Attenuation is an important property in telecommunications and ultrasound applications because of its importance in determining signal strength as a function of distance. Attenuation is usually measured in units of decibels per unit length of medium (dB/cm, dB/km, etc) and is represented by the attenuation coefficient of the medium in question. Ultrasound One area of research in which attenuation figures strongly is in ultrasound physics. Attenuation in ultrasound is the reduction in amplitude of the ultrasound beam as a function of distance through the imaging medium. Accounting for attenuation effects in ultrasound is important because a reduced signal amplitude can affect the quality of the image produced. By knowing the attenuation that an ultrasound beam experiences travelling through a medium, one can adjust the input signal amplitude to compensate for any loss of energy at the desired imaging depth. Ultrasound attenuation measurement in heterogeneous systems, like emulsions or colloids yields information on particle size distribution. There is ISO standard on this technique . Ultrasound attenuation can be used for extensional rheology measurement. There are acoustic rheometers that employ Stokes' law for measuring extensional viscosity and volume viscosity.

    Notes for course EE1.1 Circuit Analysis 2004-05 TOPIC 10 – 2-PORT CIRCUITS Objectives: . Introduction . Re-examination of 1-port sub-circuits . Admittance parameters for 2-port circuits . Gain and port impedance from 2-port admittance parameters . Impedance parameters for 2-port circuits . Hybrid parameters for 2-port circuits 1 INTRODUCTION Amplifier circuits are found in a large number of appliances, including radios, TV, video, audio, telephony (mobile and fixed), communications and instrumentation. The applications of amplifiers are practically unlimited. It is clear that an amplifier circuit has an input signal and an output signal. This configuration is represented by a device called a 2-port circuit, which has an input port for the input signal and an output port for the output signal. In this topic, we look at circuits from this point of view. To develop the idea of 2-port circuits, consider a general 1-port sub-circuit of the type we are very familiar with: The basic passive elements, resistor, inductor and capacitor, and the independent sources, are the simplest 1-port sub-circuits. A more general 1-port sub-circuit contains any number of interconnected resistors, capacitors, inductors, and sources and could have many nodes. Sometimes, perhaps when we have finished designing a circuit, we become less interested in the detail of the elements interconnected in the circuit and are happy to represent the 1-port circuit by how it behaves at its terminals. This is achieved by use of circuit analysis to determine the relationship between the voltage V1 across the terminals and the current I1 flowing through the terminals which leads to a Thevenin or Norton equivalent circuit, which can be used as a simpler replacement for the original complex circuit.

A port is defined as a terminal pair where the current entering one terminal is equal and opposite to the current exiting the second termianl. Any circuit with four terminals can be analyzed as a two-port if it is free of independent sources and the current condition is met at each terminal pair. All the complexity of the two-port is captured by four complex numbers (which are in general frequency dependent). 2 / 32 Two-Port Parameters There are many two-port parameter set, which are all equivalent in their description of the two-port, including the admittance parameters (Y ), impedance parameters (Z), hybrid or inverse-hybrid parameters (H or G), ABCD, scattering S, or transmission (T ). Y and Z paramters relate the port currents (voltages) to the port voltages (currents) through a 2x2 matrix. For example v z z i i y y v 1 = 11 12 1 1 = 11 12 1 v2 z21 z22 i2 i2 y21 y22 v2 Hybrid parameters choose a combination of v and i. For example hybrid H and inverse hybrid G (dual) v1 h11 h12 i1 = i1 g11 g12 v1 i2 h21 h22 v2 = v2 g21 g22 i2 3 / 32 Scattering Parameters Even if we didn't know anything about incident and reflected waves, we could define scattering parameters in the following way.

  • Two-Port Models with Nullators and Norators
    TWO-PORT MODELS WITH NULLATORS AND NORATORS By I. V_{GO and E. HOLLOS Department of Theoretical Electricity, Technical University Budapest (Received May 18, 1973) Introduction Recently, several publications [1, 2, 3] have discussed the modelling of two-ports with controlled generators and other extreme parameters, by using nullators and norators. These models permit to calculate networks by topo­ logical methods and to solve them by computer programming. In the follo'wing a systematic process is described for modelling a linear two-port with arbitrary parameters. The concept of nullator and norator The nullator is a two-pole 'with zero current and voltage. The norator involves no restriction with respect to current and voltage. Their symbols are shown in Figs la and lb. A network analysis problem can be solved unequivocally, if an unam­ biguous relationship can be established between currents and voltages of the two-poles forming the network. The nullator iu turu represents t,yO restric­ tions. Namely the insertion of a nullator into a real circuit makes the analysis problem redundant, the number of the possible independent Kirchhoff equa­ tions being increased by one, while the number of relationships. of volt ages and currents by two. The insertion of a norator into the circuit adds another independent Kirchhoff equation leaving the number of restrictions for voltages and currents unchanged. Accordingly the insertion of a norator makes the problem indefinite. For an equal number of inserted nullators and norators, the network calculation problem can be solved. By connecting a nullator and norator we obtain a nullor. The null or is a two-port with the primary side connected to a nullator, and the secondary side to a norator (Fig.

S-Parameters b1 S11 S12 a1 S11 S12 14 = ,S= (scattering matrix) (14.1.3) b2 S21 S22 a2 S21 S22 S-Parameters The matrix elements S11,S12,S21,S22 are referred to as the scattering parameters or the S-parameters. The parameters S11, S22 have the meaning of reflection coefficients, and S21, S12, the meaning of transmission coefficients. The many properties and uses of the S-parameters in applications are discussed in [1135–1174]. One particularly nice overview is the HP application note AN-95-1 by Anderson [1150] and is available on the web [1847]. We have already seen several examples of transfer, impedance, and scattering ma- trices. Eq. (11.7.6) or (11.7.7) is an example of a transfer matrix and (11.8.1) is the corresponding impedance matrix. The transfer and scattering matrices of multilayer structures, Eqs. (6.6.23) and (6.6.37), are more complicated examples. 14.1 Scattering Parameters The traveling wave variables a1,b1 at port 1 and a2,b2 at port 2 are defined in terms of V1,I1 and V2,I2 and a real-valued positive reference impedance Z0 as follows: Linear two-port (and multi-port) networks are characterized by a number of equivalent + − circuit parameters, such as their transfer matrix, impedance matrix, admittance matrix, V1 Z0I1 V2 Z0I2 a1 = a2 = and scattering matrix.
