Sensitivity Analysis of Network Parameters With Electromagnetic Frequency-Domain Simulators
Abstract
A new practical approach to sensitivity analysis of the network parameters of high-frequency structures with commercial full-wave electromagnetic (EM) solvers is proposed. We show that the computation of the linear-network parameter derivatives in the design-parameter space does not require an adjoint-problem solution. The sensitivities are computed outside the EM solver, which simplifies the implementation. We discuss: 1) features of …
