Abstract :
A novel method for analyzing the global stability of microwave circuits under multi-parameter variation is presented. In this method, an arbitrary linear circuit is divided up into subcircuits containing parametric elements and a fixed linear circuit. This approach improves the computational efficiency by eliminating the need for recalculation of the Y-parameters of the fixed part of the linear circuit
