Abstract
This paper presents a robust method for the analysis of nonlinear circuits, which are derived from the modeling of frequency multipliers operating in the mm-wave range. This method is based on the use of the genetic algorithm in conjunction with a standard harmonic balance technique. It combines the reliability of the evolutionary approach with the rapidity of the harmonic balance technique. Examples of analysis of mm-wave frequency multipliers are reported.
