S-parameters, or scattering parameters, have become the de facto standard for describing the electrical properties of interconnects. They are one of the few concepts that bridge the worlds of the ...

If you send a signal into one transmission line, some of it can appear on an adjacent transmission line, even when there is no direct connection. The signal from one transmission line couples through ...

Signals operating in the radio frequency (RF) realm between 3 kHz to 300 GHz are an inherent part of processing by circuit components within and outside an IC. Linear characteristics of RF circuits ...
