Abstract :
This paper introduces a new noise analysis algorithm, which is perfectly suited for linear and nonlinear applications. The adjoint system method is extended to compute the noise correlation matrix of multiport networks with arbitrary topology. The algorithm is easy to implement in general purpose CAD tools because only a nodal formulation of the system equations is needed.
