  • Abstract
    A method for improving the efficiency of CAD of step recovery diode (SRD) frequency multipliers is proposed. By abating the nonlinearity of the model of the diode to an appropriate extent, the simulation and optimization of SRD frequency multipliers can be carried out faster and easier. Simulation results are compared with experimental results.
