7.1 Introduction
A pair of terminals through which a current may enter or leave a network is known as a port.
A port is an access to the network and consists of a pair of terminals; the current entering one
terminal leaves through the other terminal so that the net current entering the port equals zero.
There are several reasons why we should study two-ports and the parameters that describe them.
For example, most circuits have two ports. We may apply an input signal in one port and obtain
an output signal from the other port. The parameters of a two-port network completely describes
its behaviour in terms of the voltage and current at each port. Thus, knowing the parameters of a
two port network permits us to describe its operation when it is connected into a larger network.
Two-port networks are also important in modeling electronic devices and system components.
For example, in electronics, two-port networks are employed to model transistors and Op-amps.
Other examples of electrical components modeled by two-ports are transformers and transmission
lines.
Four popular types of two-ports param-
eters are examined here: impedance, admit-
tance, hybrid, and transmission. We show
the usefulness of each set of parameters,
demonstrate how they are related to each
other.
Fig. 7.1 represents a two-port network.
A four terminal network is called a two-port
network when the current entering one ter-
Figure 7.1 A two-port network
minal of a pair exits the other terminal in
the pair. For example, I1 enters terminal a and exits terminal b of the input terminal pair a-b.
We assume that there are no independent sources or nonzero initial conditions within the linear
two-port network.

7.2 Admittance parameters
The network shown in Fig. 7.2 is assumed to be linear

and contains no independent sources. Hence, princi-
ple of superposition can be applied to determine the
current I1 , which can be written as the sum of two
components, one due to V1 and the other due to V2 .
Using this principle, we can write
I1 = y11 V1 + y12 V2
Figure 7.2 A linear two-port network
where y11 and y12 are the constants of proportionality
with units of Siemens.
In a similar way, we can write
I2 = y21 V1 + y22 V2
Hence, the two equations that describe the two-port network are
I1 = y11 V1 + y12 V2 (7.1)

I2 = y21 V1 + y22 V2 (7.2)
Putting the above equations in matrix form, we get

I1 y11 y12 V1
=
I2 y21 y22 V2
Here the constants of proportionality y11 ; y12 ; y21

and y22 are called y parameters for a network. If
these parameters y11 , y12 , y21 and y22 are known,
then the input/output operation of the two-port is
completely defined.
From equations (7.1) and (7.2), we can determine
y parameters. We obtain y11 and y21 by connecting
a current source I1 to port 1 and short-circuiting port

2 as shown in Fig. 7.3, finding V1 and I2 , and then
calculating,

I1 I2
y11 = y21 =
V1 V2 =0 V1 V2 =0
Since y11 is the admittance at the input measured in siemens with the output short-circuited,
it is called short-circuit input admittance. Similarly, y21 is called the short-circuit transfer admit-
tance.

Similarly, we obtain y12 and y22 by connecting a current source I2 to port 2 and short-
circuiting port 1 as in Fig. 7.4, finding I1 and V2 , and then calculating,

I1 I2
y12 = y22 =
V2 V1 =0 V2 V1 =0
y12 is called the short-circuit trans-
fer admittance and y22 is called the short-
circuit output admittance. Collectively the
y parameters are referred to as short-circuit
admittance parameters.
Please note that y12 = y21 only when
there are no dependent sources or Op-amps
within the two-port network.

While finding y parameters, we make use of KCL equations. Hence, it is preferable to have current
sources rather than voltage sources. This prompts us to convert the dependent voltage source into
an equivalent current source and results in a circuit diagram as shown in Fig. 7.16(a).

7.3 Impedance parameters
Let us assume the two port network shown in Fig. 7.17 is a

linear network that contains no independent sources. Then
using superposition theorem, we can write the input and out-
put voltages as the sum of two components, one due to I1
and other due to I2 :
V1 = z11 I1 + z12 I2
V2 = z21 I1 + z22 I2
Figure 7.17

Putting the above equations in matrix from, we get

V1 z11 z12 I1
=
V2 z21 z22 I2
The z parameters are defined as follows:

V1 V1 V2 V2
z11 = z12 = z21 = z22 =
I1 I2 =0 I2 I1 =0 I1 I2 =0 I2 I1 =0
In the preceeding equations, letting I1 or I2 = 0 is equivalent to open-circuiting the input or

output port. Hence, the z parameters are called open-circuit impedance parameters. z11 is defined
as the open-circuit input impedance, z22 is called the open-circuit output impedance, and z12 and
z21 are called the open-circuit transfer impedances.
If z12 = z21 , the network is said to be reciprocal network. Also, if all the z-parameter are
identical, then it is called a symmetrical network.
EXAMPLE 7.7
Refer the circuit shown in Fig. 7.18. Find the z parameters of this circuit. Then compute the

current in a 4Ω load if a 24 0 V source is connected at the input port.

the input terminals. This gives a circuit diagram as shown in Fig. 7.19(a).

V2 = 6I1 + 9I2 (7.14)

The terminal voltages for the network shown in Fig. 7.19(c) are

V1 = 24 0 (7.15)

Combining equations (7.15) and (7.16) with equations (7.13) and (7.14) yields

We are given z11 = 40Ω z12 = 10Ω z21 = 20Ω z22 = 30Ω
Since z12 6= z21 , this is not a reciprocal network. Hence, it cannot be represented only by
passive elements. We shall draw a network to satisfy the following two KVL equations:

One possible way of representing a network that is non-reciprocal is as shown in Fig. 7.24(a).

EXAMPLE 7.16
Is it possible to find z parameters for any two port network ? Explain.

SOLUTION
It should be noted that for some two-port networks, the z parameters do not exist because they
cannot be described by the equations:

V1 = I1 z11 + I2 z12
(7.29)
V2 = I1 z21 + I2 z22
As an example, let us consider an ideal transformer as shown in Fig. 7.33.

Figure 7.33
The defining equations for the two-port network shown in Fig. 7.33 are:
1
V1 = V2 I1 = n I2
n
It is not possible to express the voltages in terms of the currents, and viceversa. Thus, the ideal
transformer has no z parameters and no y parameters.
7.4 z and y parameters by matrix partitioning
For z parameters, the mesh equations are

V1 = z11 I1 + z12 I2 + + z1n In
V2 = z21 I1 + z22 I2 + + z2n In
0 =
0 = zn1 I1 + zn2 I2 + + znn In
By matrix partitioning, the above equations can be written as
z11 z12 z1n
z21 z22 z2n
z31 z32 z3n
zn1 zn2 znn

The above equation can be simplified as (exact analysis not required)

7.5 Hybrid parameters
The z and y parameters of a two-port network do not always exist. Hence, we define a third set
of parameters known as hybrid parameters. In the pair of equations that define these parameters,
V1 and I2 are the dependent variables. Hence, the two-port equations in terms of the hybrid
parameters are
V1 = h11 I1 + h12 V2 (7.30)

I2 = h21 I1 + h22 V2 (7.31)
or in matrix form,
V1 h11 h12 I1
I2 h21 h22 V2
These parameters are particularly important in transistor circuit analysis. These parameters
are obtained via the following equations:

V1 V1 I2 I2
h11 = h12 = h21 = h22 =
I1 V2 =0 V2 I1 =0 I1 V2 =0 V2 I1 =0
The parameters h11 ; h12 ; h21 and h22 represent the short-circuit input impedance, the open-
circuit reverse voltage gain, the short-circuit forward current gain, and the open-circuit output
admittance respectively. Because of this mix of parameters, they are called hybrid parameters.

7.6 Transmission parameters
The transmission parameters are defined by the equations:
V1 = AV2 BI2
I1 = CV2 DI2
Figure 7.45 Terminal variables used to define the ABCD Parameters

Putting the above equations in matrix form we get

V1 A B V2
=
I1 C D I2
Please note that in computing the transmission parameters, I2 is used rather than I2 , because
the current is considered to be leaving the network as shown in Fig. 7.45.
These parameters are very useful in the analysis of circuits in cascade like transmission lines
and cables. For this reason they are called Transmission Parameters. They are also known as
ABCD parameters. The parameters are determined via the following equations:

V1 V1 I1 I1
A= B= C= D=
V2 I2 =0 I2 V2 =0 V2 I2 =0 I2 V2 =0
A, B, C and D represent the open-circuit voltage ratio, the negative short-circuit transfer
impedance, the open-circuit transfer admittance, and the negative short-circuit current ratio,
respectively. When the two-port network does not contain dependent sources, the following rela-
tion holds good.
AD BC = 1

7.7 Relations between two-port parameters
If all the two-port parameters for a network exist, it is possible to relate one set of parameters to
another, since these parameters interrelate the variables V1 ; I1 ; V2 and I2 : To begin with let us
first derive the relation between the z parameters and y parameters.
The matrix equation for the z parameters is

V1 z11 z12 I1
=
V2 z21 z22 I2
) V = zI (7.53)
Similarly, the equation for y parameters is

I1 y11 y12 V1
=
I2 y21 y22 V2
) I = yV (7.54)


V = zyV
1 adj(y)
Hence; z=y =
Δy
where Δy = y11 y22 y21 y12
This means that we can obtain z matrix by inverting y matrix. It is quite possible that a
two-port network has a y matrix or a z matrix, but not both.
Next let us proceed to find z parameters in terms of ABCD parameters.
The ABCD parameters of a two-port network are defined by
V1 = AV2 BI2
I1 = CV2 DI2
) 1
V2 = (I1+ DI2 )

V2 = I 1 + I 2
C C

V1 = A + BI2

AI1 AD

C C
Comparing equations (7.56) and (7.55) with
V1 = z11 I1 + z12 I2
V2 = z21 I1 + z22 I2
respectively, we find that
A AD BC 1 D
z11 = z12 = z21 = z22 =
C C C C
Next, let us derive the relation between hybrid parameters and z parameters.
V1 = z11 I1 + z12 I2 (7.57)
V2 = z21 I1 + z22 I2 (7.58)
From equation (7.58), we can write
z21 V2
I2 = I1 + (7.59a)
z22 z22
Substituting this value of I2 in equation (7.57), we get

z21 I1 V2
V1 = z11 I1 + z12 +
z22 z22

z11 z22 z12 z21 z12 V2
= I1 + (7.59b)
z22 z22

Comparing equations (7.59b) and (7.59a) with
V1 = h11 I1 + h12 V2
I2 = h21 I1 + h22 V2
z11 z22 z12 z21 Δz
we get, h11 = =
z22 Z22
z12 z21 1
h12 = h21 = h22 =
z22 z22 z22
where Δz = z11 z22 z12 z21
Finally, let us derive the relationship between y parameters and ABCD parameters.
I1 = y11 V1 + y12 V2 (7.60)

I2 = y21 V1 + y22 V2 (7.61)
From equation (7.61), we can write

I2 y22
V1 = V2
y21 y21
y22 1
= V2 + I2 (7.62)
y21 y21
y11 y22 y11
I1 = V2 + y12 V2 + I2
y21 y21
Δy y11
= V2 + I2 (7.63)
y21 y21
Comparing equations (7.62) and (7.63) with the following equations,
V1 = AV2 BI2
I1 = CV2 DI2
y22 1 Δy y11
we get A= B= C= D=
y21 y21 y21 y21
where Δy = y11 y22 y12 y21
Table 7.1 lists all the conversion formulae that relate one set of two-port parameters to another.
Please note that Δz, Δy, Δh, and ΔT, refer to the determinants of the matrices for z, y, hybrid,
and ABCD parameters respectively.

Simplifying the above equation with n = 10,
I2 = 2V1 + 0:0498V2 (7.76)
From equation (7.73), y12 = 0:002
