Questions On S-Parameters For Practice

This document contains 7 questions about characterizing linear networks using S-parameters. S-parameters are useful for high frequency analysis where other parameters like Z, Y, h, and ABCD become insufficient. The S-matrix describes the scattering of waves in a network and has advantages like being independent of source and load impedances. Questions also address deriving the S-matrix from the ABCD matrix, properties of reciprocal and lossless networks, and analyzing networks from a given S-matrix.

Questions on S-parameters for Practice.


Q1- Why do we need S- parameters to characterise a linear network at high frequency,
although there are various other parameters like Z, Y, h, ABCD already available?
Q2- Define S- matrix. Discuss few advantages of S- parameters.
Q3- For a given [ABCD] matrix for a two port network derives its [S] matrix.

Q4- What are reciprocal networks. Taking the condition of reciprocity in ABCD parameter
show that for reciprocal networks, the [S] matrix is symmetrical i.e. S12=S21.
Q5- What are lossless networks? Discuss the two necessary properties imposed on defining
S- parameters for lossless network.
Q6- Analyse the S matrix for a two port network which is both reciprocal and lossless.
Q7- A two port network has the scattering matrix as shown below:

S= 0.2 j 0.9
j 0.9 0.4

(a)- Determine whether the network is reciprocal or lossless.


(b)- If the o/p terminals are shorted together, what will be the i/p reflection
coefficient?
