Abstract :
In a periodical distributed circuit or system, the scattering matrix of the repetitive link may readily serve to determine the Floquet coefficient and the characteristic impedance of the system. The data of the scattering matrix allow instant determination of the propagative and attenuative frequency (energy) bands.
