Abstract
A new method for determining the steady-state response of nonlinear microwave circuits with periodic excitation is proposed. The method minimizes time-domain calculations by introducing a criterion for selecting the variables to be considered as unknowns and for solving the resulting nonlinear system by a new and efficient algorithm. It has exhibited the capability for handling a large number of harmonics and nonlinearities. To illustrate the generality and usefulness of the method, a pumped diode and a MESFET frequency doubler are analyzed.Keywords
