METHOD FOR DETERMINING A MATCHING NETWORK BASED ON POINCARÉ DISCS OF REFLECTION FACTORS

摘要

Electronic circuit and method for designing an electronic circuit, - having a first source element (Q₁), a second source element (Q₂), a first matching network (M₁) and a second matching network (M₂), - in which the first matching network (M₁) and the second matching network (M₂) are designed by a method using the Poincaré distance, - in which the second source element (Q₂) is designed to output a signal (S) with a centre frequency (f), - in which the load (L) has a load impedance (Z_L), - in which the second matching network (M₂) has line-like series elements (L_S1...L_S20) which carry the signal (S), - wherein the line-like series elements (L_S1...L_S20) have only line impedances (Z_S1...Z_S20) lower than the load impedance (Z_L) or - wherein a sum of the electrical lengths of those line-like series elements (L_S1...L_S20) which each have a line impedance (Z_S1...Z_S20) which is greater than the load impedance (Z_L) is lower than a quarter of a wavelength (λ) which is associated with the signal (S).
