A Causal Microwave Circuit Theory and Its Implications

Published

Author(s)

Dylan Williams, Bradley Alpert

Abstract

We will describe a new causal power-normalized waveguide equivalent-circuit theory and explore its implications. The new theory marries a power normalization with additional constraints that enforce simultancity of the theory's voltages and currents and the actual fields in the circuit.
