A Computer-Aided Design technique for lossless matching networks with mixed, lumped and distributed elements

Abstract

A computer-aided method for the design of lossless broadband matching networks with lumped elements and commensurate transmission lines is presented. ne method is based on combining the simplifield real frequency technique with the algebraic network decomposition by Fettweis. To show the application of the Computer-Aided Design (CAD) approach, an UHF antenna matching problem is solved.
