INTRODUCTION The problem of synthesis of a resistive n-port network from its port-admittance matrix, Y, is certainly not a new one. Much investiga­ tion has been carried on as cited in the Literature Search section; but, the general problem seems far from being solved. Even though many of the known resistive synthesis procedures and their implications can be applied to networks with R, L, and C elements the author restricts the developments to resistive elements. Since the derivations are carried out utilizing nodal analysis terminology the element values of the realized network are referred to as conductances. Linear graph theory plays an important role in analysis and synthesis of networks. After defining many of the basic terms involved with linear graph theory and its applications much of the investigation relies upon the augmentation of the original port-admittance matrix with reference to linear transformations and cut-set notation. Throughout the development and discussion of the realization techniques the n ports of interest corresponding to the (nxn) port- admittance matrix are arranged in a basic Lagrangian tree or in k (2^k^n) Lagrangian subtree structures. This form of port structure lends itself nicely to nodal methods. Two forms of (n+2)-node synthesis methods are developed. One form relies entirely upon the element values of the given port-admittance matrix and requires no solving for unknown quantities. The second method depends upon the solving of a set of independent equalities and inequalities. Compared to the first method this method is a much more flexible; but, involved technique. 2 A third synthesis procedure, which concerns itself with the general case, is developed. Like the second method it requires satisfying a set of independent inequalities. This independent set of inequalities is derived from the augmented port-admittance matrix. The network synthe­ sized by this procedure or by the second procedure is certainly not unique since the solution for the unknown quantities in general will be in the form of a bounded solution. Also, the initial step of each method restricts the topology of the network to basic Lagrangian tree s tructures. 3 II. TERMS AND DEFINITIONS The language associated with linear graph theory and its applica­ tions does not always follow a precise standard. Thus, many of the terms possess various meanings depending upon the presentation or publica­ tion where they are found. In this section the author wishes to clarify the meaning of the terms or operations that are pertinent for the under­ standing of the material found in the following sections. The definitions that the author gives are those of the references cited and of personal preference according to the context of the following sections. They are thought to be the most standard representations. 1. (14) A matrix is a rectangular array containing m rows and n columns of elements of a scalar field F. It is called an (mxn) matrix over F. 2. (14) The transpose of matrix, A = [a_j], denoted by A % is defined as A' = [b. .] where b.. = a... 3. (14) An (nxn) matrix A is non-singular if and only if a matrix B, its inverse. exists such that AB = I. Otherwise, -1 A is said to be singular. We denote the inverse as B = A 4. (14) A linear transformation. T, from a vector space, V, to a vector space, W, both over the scalar field, F, is a mapping of V into W such that for all 0!,PeV and for all a,beF, (aa + bp)T = a(aT) + b(pT). (1) The linear transformation that is used in Section IVF is described as Yg = SY^S' where S' is the non-singular matrix -s • K, that gives the set of voltages, V^, associated with the admittance matrix, Y^, in terms of the set of voltages, V2, associated with the admittance matrix, Yg. 5.

    r THEORY AND TECHNIQUES OF NETWORK SENSITIVITY APPLIED TO ELECTRICAL DEVICE MODELLING AND CIRCUIT DESIGN • A thesis submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy, in the Faculty of Engineering, University of London by Pedro Antonio Villalaz Communications Section, Department of Electrical Engineering Imperial College of Science and Technology, University of London September 1972 SUMMARY Chapter 1 is meant to provide a review of modelling as used in computer aided circuit design. Different types of model are distinguished according to their form or their application, and different levels of modelling are compared. Finally a scheme is described whereby models are considered as both isolated objects, and as objects embedded in their circuit environment. Chapter 2 deals with the optimization of linear equivalent circuit models. After some general considerations on the nature of the field of optimization, providing a limited survey, one particular optimization algorithm, the 'steepest descent method' is explained. A computer program has been written (in Fortran IV), using this method in an iterative process which allows to optimize the element values as well as (within certain limits) the topology of the models. Two different methods for the computation of the gradi- ent, which are employed in the program, are discussed in connection with their application. To terminate Chapter 2 some further details relevant to the optimization procedure are pointed out, and some computed examples illustrate the performance of the program. The next chapter can be regarded as a preparation for Chapters 4 and 5. An efficient method for the computation of large, change network sensitivity is described. A change in a network or equivalent circuit model element is simulated by means of an addi- tional current source introduced across that element.

Received: 19 November 2010; in revised form: 14 January 2011 / Accepted: 22 January 2011 / Published: 28 January 2011 Abstract: Ultra low power circuits require robust and reliable operation despite the unavoidable use of low currents and the weak inversion transistor operation region. For analogue domain filtering doubly terminated LC ladder based filter topologies are thus highly desirable as they have very low sensitivities to component values: non-exact component values have a minimal effect on the realised transfer function. However, not all transfer functions are suitable for implementation via a LC ladder prototype, and even when the transfer function is suitable the synthesis procedure is not trivial. The modern circuit designer can thus benefit from an updated treatment of this synthesis procedure. This paper presents a methodology for the design of doubly terminated LC ladder structures making use of the symbolic maths engines in programs such as MATLAB and MAPLE. The methodology is explained through the detailed synthesis of an example 7th order bandpass filter transfer function for use in electroencephalogram (EEG) analysis.

Jensen (Major, rofessor) Three synthesis methods for the realization of the voltage transfer function by means of RC elements and three different active devices are presented. These three devices are a high -gain amplifier, a voltage con- trolled voltage source (VCVS) and a negative immittance converter (NIC). The VCVS and NIC as well as the high - gain amplifier are realized by an operational amplifier. The properties of the operational amplifier are stated. The matrix representation which describes the electrical behavior of this device is defined. The realizations of VCVS and NIC using an operational ampli- fier are derived. Synthesis techniques for these network configurations are developed and investigated. Examples are given for each case followed by experimental results. A Butterworth low -pass function is selected for all three synthesis examples. The actual networks are built. The experimental results of actual networks are analyzed and compared with the theoretical results. A general com- parison of these three different synthesis methods is discussed in the conclusion.

  • Ultra-Wideband Bias-Tee Design Using Distributed Network Synthesis
    This article has been accepted and published on J-STAGE in advance of copyediting. Content is final as presented. IEICE Electronics Express, Vol.* No.*,*-* Ultra-wideband bias-tee design using distributed network synthesis Nam-Tae Kima) Department of Electronic Engineering, Inje University, Gimhae 621-749, Korea a) [email protected] Abstract: This paper presents a design methodology for ultra-wideband bias tees, using a distributed network synthesis considering both RF and DC performance. For the design of bias tees, transfer functions of distributed circuits are offered using equal ripple approximation, and DC current-handling capacity is incorporated into the network synthesis by calculating capacity in terms of the characteristic impedance of a transmission line. A bias-tee circuit with the desired characteristics can be synthesized by properly adjusting the minimum insertion loss (MIL) and ripple of the transfer function with reference to the required performance. As an example, a distributed network synthesis is applied to design a bias tee for ultra-wideband applications.
