Alternate forms of the generalized composite scattering matrix

Abstract

The author reconciles the differences in three forms of generalized composite scattering matrix derivations. Star matrix multiplication conversion of a generalized composite transmission matrix to its scattering equivalent and signal flow graph analysis are reviewed and analyzed.< <ETX xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">&gt;</ETX>
