Introduction to Two-Port Circuits

In analyzing some electrical systems, focusing on two pairs of terminal is convenient. Often, a signal is fed into one pair of terminals and then after being processed, is extracted at a second pair of terminals. The terminal pairs represent the points where signals are either fed in or extracted. They are referred to as ports of the system. Fig. 42-1 illustrates the basic two-port building block. Use of this building block is subject to several restrictions: o There can be no energy stored within the circuit o There can be no independent sources within the circuit o The current into the port must equal the current out of the port o All external connections must be made to either the input port or output port, no connections are allowed between the ports.
The fundamental principle underlying two-port modeling of a system is that only the terminal variables (i1, v1, i2, and v2) are of interest. -4-
The Terminal Equations

In two-port network we are interested in relating the current and voltage at one port to the current and voltage at the other port. Fig. 42-1 shows the reference polarities of the terminal voltages and the reference directions of the terminal currents. Most general description is carried out in the s domain. We write all equations in the s domain, resistive networks and sinusoidal steady state solutions become special cases. Fig. 42-2 shows the basic building block in terms of the s-domain variables I1, V1, I2, and V2.

Out these four terminal variables, only two are independent. Thus we can describe a two-port network with just two simultaneous equations. However there are six ways in which to combine the four variables: Impedance Parameters (z-parameters):
V1 = z11 I1 + z12 I 2
V2 = z21 I1 + z22 I 2
(42-1)

Admittance Parameters (y-parameters):
I1 = y11V1 + y12V2 I 2 = y21V1 + y22V2 V1 = h11 I1 + h12V2 I 2 = h21 I1 + h22V2 I1 = g11V1 + g12 I 2 V2 = g 21V1 + g 22 I 2 V1 = a11V2 a12 I 2 I1 = a21V2 a22 I 2 V2 = b11V1 b12 I1 I 2 = b21V1 b22 I1

(42-3)
Inverse Hybrid Parameters (g-parameters):
(42-4)
Transmission Parameters (a-parameters):
(42-5)
Inverse Transmission Parameters (b-parameters):
(42-6)
These six sets of equations may also be considered as three pairs of mutually inverse relations. The coefficients of the variables are called the parameters of the two-port circuit. We refer to the z-parameters, y-parameters, a-parameters, b-parameters, h-parameters and g-parameters of the network.

The Two-Port Parameters

z-parameters: or in matrix form:
V1 = z11 I1 + z12 I 2 V2 = z21 I1 + z22 I 2
V1 z11 V = z 2 21
z12 I1 I1 = z I [ ] I z22 2 2
(42-7)
The values of the parameters can be evaluated by setting I1=0 (input port open-circuited) or I2=0 (output port open-circuited). Thus,
z11 = z21 =
V1 V , z12 = 1 I1 I =0 I 2 I =0 2 1 V2 V , z22 = 2 I1 I =0 I 2 I =0 2 1
(42-8)
The z-parameters are also called the open-circuit impedance parameters: z11= Open-circuit input impedance z12= Open-circuit transfer impedance from port 1 to port 2 z21= Open-circuit transfer impedance from port 2 to port 1 z22= Open-circuit output impedance Example 42-1 illustrates the determination of the z-parameters for a resistive circuit. -7-
EE 205 Dr. A. Zidouri Example 42-1 Find the z-parameters for a resistive circuit shown in Fig. 42-3 Solution: To obtain z11 and z21 we connect a voltage V1 (or a current source I1) to port 1 with port 2 open circuited as in Fig. 42-4a.

Fig. 42-3 The Circuit for Example 42-1
z11 =
20 20 V1 = = 10 , 40 I1 I =0 2
When I2 is zero, V2
V1 V 0.75V1 20 15 = 0.75V1 therefore z21 = 2 = = 7.5 15 + 5 I1 I =0 V1 10 2
To obtain z12 and z22 we connect a voltage V2 (or a current source I2) to port 2 with port 1 open circuited as in Fig. 42-4b.

z22 =
15 25 V2 = = 9.375 , 40 I 2 I =0 1
When I1 is zero, V1
V2 V 0.8V2 V = = 7.5 ( 20 ) = 0.8V2 and I 2 = 2 hence z12 = 1 5 + 20 I 2 I =0 V2 9.375 9.375 1
Note that each of these parameters is the ratio of a voltage to a current and therefore is an impedance with the dimension of ohms; this is why they are called z-parameters. When z11 = z22 , the two-port network is said to be symmetrical. When the two-port network is linear and has no dependent sources, the transfer impedances are equal (z12=z21), and the two-port network is said to be reciprocal.

y-parameters: or in matrix form:
I1 = y11V1 + y12V2 I 2 = y21V1 + y22V2 I1 y11 I = y 2 21 y12 V1 V1 = y V [ ] V y22 2 2

(42-9)
The values of the parameters can be evaluated by setting V1=0 (input port short-circuited) or V2=0 (output port short-circuited). Thus,
y11 = y21 =
I1 I , y12 = 1 V1 V =0 V2 V =0 2 1 I2 I , y22 = 2 V1 V =0 V2 V =0 2 1
(42-10)
The y-parameters are also called the short-circuit admittance parameters: y11= Short-circuit input admittance y12= Short -circuit transfer admittance from port 2 to port 1 y21= Short -circuit transfer admittance from port 1 to port 2 y22= Short -circuit output admittance Example 42-2 illustrates the determination of the y-parameters for a resistive circuit.
