Abstract
The paper proposes a new solution to the standard electromagnetic compatibility problem for nonlinear RF/microwave integrated circuits. Radiation from the given circuit is first numerically analysed by means of electromagnetic simulation. Under the assumption of a uniform plane wave incident on the circuit, the reciprocity theorem is then used to characterize the linear subnetwork by a Norton equivalent circuit. Finally, a multitone harmonic-balance analysis allows the effects of the incident wave on the circuit electrical regime to be exactly investigated.File in questo prodotto:
