abstract

  • AbstractAn efficient adjoint variable method technique is developed for time‐domain sensitivity analysis of planar structures with transmission‐line modeling complemented by a first‐order one‐way wave‐equation absorbing boundaries. A backward‐running adjoint simulation is derived and solved. The validity of the technique is illustrated through three microstrip circuits. The examples demonstrate the efficiency and accuracy of the technique in comparison with the classical finite‐difference approaches to the estimation of the response sensitivities.
