Basic T parameter table for RF design

AI Thread Summary
A request for a basic T parameter table for RF design highlights the need for specific T parameters related to shunt impedance and series capacitance in coaxial systems. T-parameters are identified as the matrix inverse of S-parameters, but they cannot be combined through matrix multiplication like S-parameters can. The discussion emphasizes that while S-parameters are widely used, T-parameters offer advantages for describing complex systems. The user seeks resources or tables to aid in their RF design work. The conversation underscores the importance of understanding both parameter types in RF applications.

Can anyone tell me where I can find a basic T parameter table for RF design. One with the T parameters for shunt impedence in coaxial, series capacitance in coaxial, coaxial of length l etc...

T-parameters are just the matrix inverse of s-parameters. Find the answer for s-parameters and it's just math. Or just use s-parameters like 99% of the universe.
 
They are not the direct inverse of S parameter and you can not combine S parameters by matrix multiplication to describe a more complex system. You can with T parameters, which is why I am looking for them.

Thanks for the reply.
 
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...
