S-Parameter Variables
This module automatically generates variables for the S-parameters. The port names (use numbers for sweeps to work correctly) determine the variable names. If, for example, there are two ports with the numbers 1 and 2 and Port 1 is the inport, the software generates the variables
S11
and
S21
.
S11
is the S-parameter for the reflected wave and
S21
is the S-parameter for the transmitted wave. For convenience, two variables for the S-parameters on a dB scale,
S11dB
and
S21dB
, are also defined using the following relation:
The model and physics interface names also appear in front of the variable names so they can vary. The S-parameter variables are added to the predefined quantities in appropriate plot lists.
