Reciprocity in linear time-invariant networks

Research output: Book/ReportCommissioned report

Abstract

A general time-domain definition of reciprocity is given in terms of network port variables, and this definition is applied to conclude the symmetry of network matrices, even in the case of active, nonfinite networks. A new proof is presented of the reciprocity of finite networks composed of time-invariant resistors, capacitors, inductors and transformers, and this proof is also applied to show the reciprocity of interconnections of a wide class of reciprocal networks.
