Efficient AC and noise analysis of two-tone RF circuits
Ricardo Telichevesky, K. Kundert, Jacob White · 2005
In this paper we present a preconditioned recycled Krylov-subspace method to accelerate a recently developed approach for ac and noise analysis of linear periodically-varying communication circuits. Examples are given to show that the combined method can be used to analyse switching filter frequency response, mixer 1/f noise frequency translation, and amplifier intermodulation distortion. In addition, it is shown that for large circuits the preconditioned recycled Krylov-subspace method is up to forty times faster than the standard optimized direct methods.
