Jp. Courat et al., EXTRACTION OF THE TOPOLOGY OF EQUIVALENT-CIRCUITS BASED ON PARAMETER STATISTICAL EVOLUTION DRIVEN BY SIMULATED ANNEALING, International journal of electronics, 79(1), 1995, pp. 47-52
A new systematic methodology to extract an equivalent circuit from S p
arameter measurements of any electronic device within a given frequenc
y range is proposed. It is based on a progressive schematic pruning te
chnique that derives from observation of the evolution of schematic pa
rameters during a fitting process driven by simulated annealing.
