Such an approach is with easy formulation and general enough to solve a complete microwave circuit like mixers or oscillators. Furthermore, it can handle independently without the help of CAD tools if the terminated circuit network is complicated.application/pdf159081 bytesapplication/pdfen-USApproximation theory; Frequency domain analysis; Integration; Microwave circuits; Transmission line theory; Nonlinear loads; Staircase approximation; Digital circuitsTransient analysis of dispersive transmission lines with nonlinear loads using staircase approximationjournal article10.1109/APMC.2001.985331http://ntur.lib.ntu.edu.tw/bitstream/246246/2007041910021392/1/00985331.pdf
