Abstract :
A global electromagnetic analysis of MHIC circuits is presented. The model uses the integral equation technique associated with the multiport representation of active circuits. The main advantage of this model is to provide a global analysis including interconnections effects between active components and microstrip lines. Experimental validation of the theory is presented for an MMIC amplifier inserted in a microstrip line. Theoretical results are in good agreement with experimental results
