From S-parameters to B-parameters
In matrix form, the formula is
B=([002k212Z2k21]S+[002k21−2Z2k21])([2k11−2Z1k1100]S+[2k112Z1k1100])−1
While for each element, we obtain
B11B12B21B22=2S12k2k1(S22−S11−S11S22+S12S21+1)=−2S12k2Z1k1(S11+S22+S11S22−S12S21+1)=2S12Z2k2k1(S11+S22−S11S22+S12S21−1)=2S12Z2k2Z1k1(S11−S22−S11S22+S12S21+1)
The formulas are obtained with the methods explained here.
The MATLAB implementation can be found in circuitconversions on Gitlab.
Definitions
[B1B2]=S[A1A2] | [V2−I2]=B[V1I1] |
The incident and reflected waves are defined as
A1A2=k1(V1+I1Z1)B1=k2(V2+I2Z2)B2=k1(V1−I1Z1)=k2(V2−I2Z2)
with Z0,i the reference impedance for port i and ki defined as
ki=2ℜ(Z0,i)1ki=α2∣Z0,i∣ℜ(Z0,i)
depending on whether you are using power- or pseudowaves.
