Detail Cantuman

The eBook consists of 12 chapters. We present an overview in Chap. 1. In
Chap. 2, a completely derivative-free approach is shown for proving the globality
of the maximum power in case of linear time invariant one-ports. In Chap. 3,
nonlinear resistive case has been treated: the well-known solar cell example. Topic
of Chap. 4 is competitive power matching. That means a multiport case when the
ports have been optimized consecutively. This way leads to very different solution
than the simultaneous optimization. The big Chap. 5 deals with the scattering matrix
as the measure from the power matched status. Broadband matching applications
have been touched as classical and real frequency methods for broadband matching.
In Chap. 6, we prove that a linear, passive one-port is always causal and that
causality can be hurt in case of large nonlinear circuits. Chap. 7 is intended for our
own results: power matching with describing functions and weakly nonlinear circuits
. In Chap. 8, the most general case has been solved: nonlinear dynamic sources.
Importance of the Gateaux derivative has been pointed out. This work has been
concluded in Chap. 9.
Technically, main units are called as chapters, while sub-chapters are called
sections. Figures and equations are numbered by the chapter and section number
and the consecutive serial number. In the references chapter, literature has been
grouped according to the chapters.
