  • Abstract
    Tabulated S-parameters are often tested for causality to ensure successful transient simulation. Existing approaches for this test either are not robust or have limited resolution in detecting noncausality. In this paper, a new approach for this test is proposed. The proposed approach is more robust and has better resolution than existing approaches.
