The impedance [Z] matrix relates voltages and currents.
So we can write [V] =[Z][I]V1 = Z11I1 + Z12I2V2 = Z21I1 + Z22I2, etc.

• Many practical networks are reciprocal (not containing any nonreciprocal media such as ferrites or plasmas, or active devices)
• Impedance and admittance matrices are symmetric, that is

• If the network is lossless, then the net real power delivered to the network must be zero. Thus, Re{Pav} = 0.
• Then for a reciprocal lossless N-port junction we can show that the elements of the [Z] and [Y] matrices must be pure imaginary
where m, n = port index.

Single- and Two-port Networks• The analysis can be done easily through simple input-
output relations. • Input and output port parameters can be determined
without the need to know inner structure of the system. • At low frequencies, the z, y, h, or ABCD parameters are
basic network input-output parameter relations.• At high frequencies (in microwave range), scattering
parameters (S parameters) are defined in terms of traveling waves and completely characterize the behavior of two-port networks.

These two-port representations (Z, Y, H, and ABCD) are very useful at low frequencies because the parameters arereadily measured using short- and open- circuit tests at the terminals of the two-port network.

Disadvantages of using these parameters at RF or microwave frequency• Difficult to directly measure V and I• Difficult to achieve open circuit due to stray
capacitance• Active circuits become unstable when terminated
in short- and open- circuits.
