  • Abstract
    This paper presents a fresh look at applications of S-parameters to stability analysis. In particular, we present a simple example that proves that, contrary to the popular belief, the stability criterion SrSn > 1 is, in general, not true. We go back to Nyquist stability criterion to assure the proper interpretation of the product SrSn which is readily available in various CAE tools.
