skrf.network.s2y

skrf.network.s2y(s, z0=50, s_def='power')[source]

convert scattering parameters 1 to admittance parameters 2

Equations are the inverse of s2z().

Parameters
  • s (complex array-like) – scattering parameters

  • z0 (complex array-like or number) – port impedances

  • s_def (str -> s_def : can be: 'power', 'pseudo' or 'traveling') – Scattering parameter definition : ‘power’ for power-waves definition 3, ‘pseudo’ for pseudo-waves definition 4. ‘traveling’ corresponds to the initial implementation. Default is ‘power’.

Returns

y – admittance parameters

Return type

complex array-like
