An active harmonic load-pull setup with the possibility to measure the inner voltages and currents is presented. To overcome stability issues, the realized setup uses open loops with synchronized generators for the 2 nd and 3 rd harmonic. Application examples show transistor-model verification and i

✦ Synopsis
A novel algorithm has been implemented within our new semiconductor device simulation program TESSA that allows large signal periodic time-domain simulation to be performed by integrating over just one period of the excitation. Conventionally the need to integrate out initial transients, over many cycles, had effectively made such simulations impracticable. The algorithm can also be implemented in the field of circuit simulation so a combined large signal circuitidevice simulation package is now a practical possibility.

This paper presents a novel method for harmonic analysis that uses techniques both in the time and the frequency domain. The linearparts of a network are modelled in the frequency domain, while the non-linear ones (converters, saturable transformers, etc.) can be modelled more easily in the time dom
Two signal extraction techniques, including one in the frequency domain and one in the time domain, are de¨eloped for the time-domain analysis of microwa¨e de¨ices fed by a transmission line, for which only one FDTD calculation is needed, and an incident wa¨e and a reflected wa¨e in both the time do
## Abstract This paper focuses on the implementation of table‐based models of high‐frequency transistors for time‐domain simulators at microwave and mm‐wave frequencies. In this frequency range, the channel is not capable of responding to the excitation instantaneously therefore, a delay‐time exist
We developed a simulation tool that combines a frequency-domain simulation engine and different nonlinear device modelling approaches. Among these, we focus on a novel technique based on vectorial large-signal measurements. We show the hard practical implementation of the analytical solution and pro
