A reciprocal two-port requires three independent parameters to describe it. For instance, the set of parameters (A, B, C) will describe it since the fourth parameter D can be obtained from the constraint AD – BC = 1 arising out of the reciprocal nature of the network.
ABCD parameters are widely applied in the analysis of transmission lines under sinusoidal steady-state. However, analysts prefer another equivalent formulation when it comes to analysis of transmission lines under transient conditions or with aperiodic inputs. Similarly, filter designers favour this alternative formulation to ABCD parameters. This alternative way to describe a reciprocal two-port network is called ...
