What is Network Parameters?<\/h2>\n

A pair of terminals through which a current may enter or leave a network is known as a port. Most of the circuits we have dealt with so far are two-terminal or one-port circuits, represented in fig. (a). We have considered the voltage across or current through a single pair of terminals-such as the two terminals of a resistor, a capacitor, or an inductor. We have also studied four-terminal or two-port circuit involving op-amps, transistors and transformer as shown in fig. (b). Thus, we can say that a two-port network is an electrical network with separate ports for input and output.<\/p>\n

In general, a network may have n <\/em>ports. In this chapter, we are mainly concerned with two-port networks (or simply, two ports).<\/p>\n

In two port network four variables are use (i.e., V<\/em>1<\/sub>, V<\/em>2<\/sub>, I1<\/sub>, I2<\/sub> ) out of four variable, we can chose two variable in six different way (4<\/sup>C2<\/sub>), and hence we have six sets of two-port.<\/em><\/em><\/p>\n
