current at all other ports (1, 2, and 3) are zero.
Thus, more generally, the ratio of the current into port n and
the voltage at port m is:

Q: As impossible as it sounds,
this handout is even more
boring and pointless than any
of your previous efforts. Why
are we studying this? After all,
what is the likelihood that a
device will have an open circuit
on all but one of its ports?!

zero. We can ensure that by simply placing a short circuit at
these zero voltage ports!

Just as with the trans-impedance values, we can use the transadmittance values to evaluate general circuit problems, where
none of the ports have zero voltage.
Since the device is linear, the current at any one port due to all
the port currents is simply the coherent sum of the currents at
that port due to each of the port voltages!
For example, the current at port 3 can be determined by:
Im = Ymn Vn
n =1

Meaning that:

V=Z I
By comparing the two previous expressions, we can conclude:
Z = Y 1

Reciprocal and
Lossless Networks
We can classify multi-port devices or networks as either
lossless or lossy; reciprocal or non-reciprocal. Lets look at
each classification individually:
Lossless
A lossless network or device is simply one that cannot absorb
power. This does not mean that the delivered power at every
port is zero; rather, it means the total power flowing into the
device must equal the total power exiting the device.
A lossless device exhibits an impedance matrix with an
interesting property. Perhaps not surprisingly, we find for a
lossless device that the elements of its impedance matrix will
be purely reactive:
Re {Z mn } = 0

Reciprocal
Generally speaking, most passive, linear microwave
components will turn out to be reciprocalregardless of
whether the designer intended it to be or not!
Reciprocity is basically a natural effect of using simple
linear materials such as dielectrics and conductors. It results
from a characteristic in electromagnetics called
reciprocitya characteristic that is difficult to prevent!
But reciprocity is a tremendously important characteristic, as
it greatly simplifies an impedance or admittance matrix!
Specifically, we find that a reciprocal device will result in a
symmetric impedance and admittance matrix, meaning that:
Z mn = Znm
Ymn = Ynm

V1 = 16.0 (1 ) I1
2. The short circuit on port 2 means that:
V2 = 0
3. While the load on port 3 leads to:
V1 = 16 I1 = 2 I1 + I2 + 2 I3
16 = 3 I1 + I2 + 2 I3
V2 = 0 = I1 + I2 + 4 I3
0 = I1 + I 2 + 4 I 3
V3 = I3 = 2 I1 + 4 I2 + I3
0 = 2 I1 + 4 I2 + 2I3
Solving, we find (Ill let you do the algebraic details!):

I1 = 7.0
I2 = 3.0
I3 = 1.0
V1 = 9.0
V2 = 0.0
V3 = 1.0
