Description

Block Divider (CE) Simulates power dividers or adders in a circuit envelope simulation environment as an S-parameter model. In a power divider, the input power goes to one port, is split, and exits through different ports.

Parameters

Parameters

# Select component — type of divider
T power divider | Resistive power divider | Tee E-plane

Details

The type of divider specified by one of the following values.

  • T power divider (by default) — the S-parameter matrix for this value looks like this:

    where

    • Reference impedances: .

  • Resistive power divider — the matrix of S-parameters for this value looks like this:

  • Tee E-plane — is symmetrical, lossless, and mutually inverse. The S-parameter matrix for this value looks like this:

Values

# Reference impedances, Ohm — divider reference impedance

Details

The reference impedance of the divider, set as a positive scalar or a three-element vector.

If the reference impedances of all ports are not equal, then the model inside the block Divider (CE) normalizes to 50 Om.
Default value
