Abstract

In this article we developed a new method of calculation of the active microwaves circuits in micro ribbon technology. This technique is based on the iterative method where localised auxiliary sources are introduced to model the active elements of the circuit (ultra high frequency diodes). To validate this work, the results obtained are compared with those obtained by the software momentum of advanced design system (ADS). We show primarily the interests and the operational limits of auxiliary source in the formulation of the considered problem.
