A standard form of Complex Frequency can only have two terms?

AI Thread Summary
A standard form of complex frequency typically consists of two terms, represented as v(t) = K1e^(s1t) + K2e^(s2t). The user expresses confusion about whether a different expression, v(t) = K1e^s1 + K1e^s2 - K2e^s3 - K2e^s4, is valid. Clarification is provided that it is indeed possible to have more than one pair of terms in certain contexts. However, the notation and specific meanings behind the terms used may lead to confusion. Understanding the underlying principles and notation is essential for accurate calculations in complex frequency expressions.

Standard from book:

v(t)=K1e^(s1t)+K2e^(s2t)

Can I have this below instead?

v(t)=K1e^s1 + K1e^s2 - K2e^s3 - K2e^s4

I'm really confused, I sometimes get this when I do calculations.

Any ideas? Thanks!

It's correct to have more than one pair, figured out.
 
I would have tried to help, but I wasn't 100% sure on the notation you're using or what is the specific meaning behind your question.
 
Very basic question. Consider a 3-terminal device with terminals say A,B,C. Kirchhoff Current Law (KCL) and Kirchhoff Voltage Law (KVL) establish two relationships between the 3 currents entering the terminals and the 3 terminal's voltage pairs respectively. So we have 2 equations in 6 unknowns. To proceed further we need two more (independent) equations in order to solve the circuit the 3-terminal device is connected to (basically one treats such a device as an unbalanced two-port...
Thread 'Weird near-field phenomenon I get in my EM simulation'
I recently made a basic simulation of wire antennas and I am not sure if the near field in my simulation is modeled correctly. One of the things that worry me is the fact that sometimes I see in my simulation "movements" in the near field that seems to be faster than the speed of wave propagation I defined (the speed of light in the simulation). Specifically I see "nodes" of low amplitude in the E field that are quickly "emitted" from the antenna and then slow down as they approach the far...
