Abstract :
A symbolic computation technique, which automatically converts an equivalent circuit model of an electron device into a set of closed-form S-parameter equations, is presented. It is shown how these equations are used to customize a computer-aided model generation process. Significant improvement has been observed in the computational efficiency of a modeling process utilizing these closed-form equations.<>
