Independent Variables for X-Parameters
The independent variables in the X-parameter file are real values, indexed by fundamental, port, and harmonic numbers.

Independent Variable |
Description |
|
fund_k |
kth fundamental frequency. |
|
VDC_p |
DC voltage applied to port p. Mutually exclusive with IDC_p at the same port. |
|
IDC_p |
DC current applied to port p. Mutually exclusive with VDC_p at the same port. |
|
AN_p_n |
Magnitude of Reference large-signal input to port p at harmonic n. One AN variable must be present for each fundamental. |
|
AM_p_n |
Magnitude of any other large-signal input to port p at harmonic n other than the Reference Signal AN_p_n. Required when AP_p_n is used at same port and harmonic. |
|
AP_p_n |
Phase in degrees of any other large-signal input to port p at harmonic n other than the Reference Signal AN_p_n. Required when AM_p_n is used at same port and harmonic. |
|
GM_p_n |
Magnitude of the reflection coefficient of the load at port p, harmonic n. Required when GP_p_n is used at the same port and harmonic. Mutually exclusive with the other formats for specifying load at the same port p and harmonic n. |
|
GP_p_n |
Phase in degrees of the reflection coefficient of the load at port p, harmonic n. Required when GM_p_n is used at the same port and harmonic. Mutually exclusive with the other formats for specifying load at the same port p and harmonic n. |
|
GX_p_n GY_p_n |
Real and imaginary parts of the reflection coefficient. Mutually exclusive with the other formats for specifying load at the same port p and harmonic n. |
|
ZM_p_n ZP_p_n |
Magnitude and phase of the load impedance. Mutually exclusive with the other formats for specifying load at the same port p and harmonic n. |
|
ZX_p_n ZY_p_n |
Real and imaginary parts of the load impedance. Mutually exclusive with the other formats for specifying load at the same port p and harmonic n. |
