Abstract :
An analysis method, based on the numerical inversion of the Laplace transform, for the evaluation of the time-domain sensitivity of networks which include lossy coupled transmission lines is described. The sensitivity can be calculated with respect to network components and parameters of the transmission lines. Examples and comparisons with sensitivity determined by perturbation are presented.<>
