Construction of Common Platform and Network Theory-Based Solver for Microwave Circuit Analysis "Practical Construction of 1-D Transmission Line Circuit"

"Microwave circuit simulator" and "Microwave field simulator" are important tools for analysis and design of microwave circuit. However they have several points to be improved. In order to cover them, we propose to construct common and open platform which can accept any solver for collaboration or academic use, and new solver which is constructed by network theory and can give exact solution for response and field. As a first step toward our proposal, software for 1-D transmission line circuit is constructed and proved to be valid and effective, which will promise successful construction of software for 2-D planar and 3-D space circuit.
