Definition of Two-Port Circuits
The following linear four-terminal circuit containing no independent sources
I1=I1’
I2=I2’
No external connections exist between the input and output ports.
The two-port model is used to describe the performance of a circuit in terms
of the voltage and current at its input and output ports.
Classification of Two-Port Parameters
1. The Impedance or Z-parameters
2. The admittance , or Y-parameters
3. The hybrid, or h-parameters
4. The inverse hybrid, or g-parameters
5. The transmission T, or a-parameters (or ABCD parameters)
6. The inverse transmission T’, or b-parameters (or A’B’C’D’)
A network is having two pairs of accessible terminals, it is called a two port
network. If voltage and current at the input and output terminals are V1 , I1 and V2 ,
I2 respectively, there are six sets of possible combinations generated by the four
variables, describing a two - port network. Z - parameters and Y- parameters are two
among them.
Using Z- parameters the circuit can be represented by the following equations
V1 = Z11 I1 + Z12 I2
V2 = Z21 I1 + Z22 I2
Using Y- parameters the circuit can be represented by the following equations
I1 = Y11 V1 + Y12 V2
I2 = Y21 V1 + Y22 V2
