  • Abstract
    The paper presents a new method for signal flowgraph analysis of large electronic networks. A hierarchical decomposition approach is realized using the so-called upward analysis of the decomposed network. This approach allows fully symbolic network formulas to be obtained in time linearly proportional to the size of the network. A multiconnection characterization, suitable for upward analysis, has been defined and used in topological formulas. Examples of large scale networks analysis are discussed. The approach can be used to obtain symbolic solutions of linear systems of equations.
