Realizability of n-port resistive networks with 2n terminals

In this paper, we consider the realizability problem of n-port resistive networks containing 2n terminals. A necessary and sufficient condition for any real symmetric matrix to be realizable as the admittance of an n-port resistive network containing 2n terminals is obtained. The condition is based on the existence of a parameter matrix. We then focus on a three-port resistive network containing six terminals. A necessary and sufficient condition is derived for any real symmetric matrix to be realizable as the admittance of a three-port resistive network containing six terminals and at most five positive elements, whose topological structure is properly restricted. © 2013 IEEE.published_or_final_versio

The classical n-port resistive synthesis problem

INTRODUCTION: An n-port resistive network is an n-port circuit consisting of only passive resistors, which is an important class of passive networks. An n-port resistive network is usually characterized by its impedance or admittance matrix. Since there are no reactive elements, passivity and reciprocity imply that the impedance and admittance matrices of n-port resistive networks must be nonnegative definite if they exist [21]. Since no transformers are present, there are further constraints. The realizability problem of n-port resistive networks was an active topic and was widely investigated from the 1950s to the 1970s. Recently, the invention ...postprin
