Two properties for circuit sensitivity in terms of scattering parameters
V.A. Monaco, Paolo Tiberio · Electronics Letters · 1972
Two properties are given for the 1st- and 2nd-order sensitivities of linear circuits. These may be used to compute sensitivities with respect to reflection coefficients of terminations connected to the circuit ports, in terms of scattering parameters of the circuit obtained from the original by disconnecting the terminations themselves.
