Impedance Parameters - Relation To S-parameters

Relation To S-parameters

The Z-parameters of a network are related to its S-Parameters by

$\begin{align} Z &= \sqrt{z} (1_{\!N} + S) (1_{\!N} - S)^{-1} \sqrt{z} \\ &= \sqrt{z} (1_{\!N} - S)^{-1} (1_{\!N} + S) \sqrt{z} \\ \end{align}$

and

$\begin{align} S &= (\sqrt{y}Z\sqrt{y} \,- 1_{\!N}) (\sqrt{y}Z\sqrt{y} \,+ 1_{\!N})^{-1} \\ &= (\sqrt{y}Z\sqrt{y} \,+ 1_{\!N})^{-1} (\sqrt{y}Z\sqrt{y} \,- 1_{\!N}) \\ \end{align}$

where is the identity matrix, is a diagonal matrix having the square root of the characteristic impedance at each port as its non-zero elements,

$\sqrt{z} = \begin{pmatrix} \sqrt{z_{01}} & \\ & \sqrt{z_{02}} \\ & & \ddots \\ & & & \sqrt{z_{0N}} \end{pmatrix}$

and is the corresponding diagonal matrix of square roots of characteristic admittances. In these expressions the matrices represented by the bracketed factors commute and so, as shown above, may be written in either order.

Famous quotes containing the words relation to and/or relation:

“The whole point of Camp is to dethrone the serious. Camp is playful, anti-serious. More precisely, Camp involves a new, more complex relation to “the serious.” One can be serious about the frivolous, frivolous about the serious.”
—Susan Sontag (b. 1933)

“Any relation to the land, the habit of tilling it, or mining it, or even hunting on it, generates the feeling of patriotism. He who keeps shop on it, or he who merely uses it as a support to his desk and ledger, or to his manufactory, values it less.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
