Abstract

A new numerical technique for periodic small signal analysis based on harmonic balance method is proposed. Special-purpose numerical procedures based on Krylov subspace methods are developed that reduce the computational efforts of solving linear problems under frequency sweeping. Examples are given to show the efficiency of the new algorithm for computing small signal characteristics for typical RF circuits.
