Abstract :
Using the admittance matrix representation for the description of microwave devices can lead to systems with a banded coefficient matrix. In this paper we describe an efficient procedure for the solution of banded linear systems. A comparative study between the procedure proposed and two other commonly used techniques is performed indicating that the technique presented in this paper is indeed very effective.
