treated as we have done for coefficient S11. Indeed, if the
We will adopt these equivalent circuits to build sub- hierarchical block S1122 is placed at the output of the
circuits under Pspice that can extract the S-parameters of two-port network and the input port is terminated with a
a given two-port network. reference impedance Z0 = 50 Ω, then the hierarchical pin
3 of S1122 block enables us to get S22 versus frequency.
2.1. Extraction of S11 and S22 Parameters
2.2. Extraction of S21 and S12 Parameters
The parameter S11 has the meaning of input reflection
coefficient if the load impedance is matched to the The parameter S21 has the meaning of the forward
reference impedance Z0, that is ZL = Z0 = 50 Ω. In this transmission coefficient. If the internal impedance of the
case and if the internal impedance of the generator is generator ZG and the load impedance ZL are identical and
equal to the reference impedanceZ0, the parameter S11 can equal to the reference impedance Z0, then, according to
