Input stability circle

The input reflection coefficient of a loaded two-port network is given by


displaymath3033
One of the criteria for the loaded two-port network to be unconditionally stable is that tex2html_wrap_inline3035. We are going to find out what kind of load tex2html_wrap_inline2885 will give the network to the boundary of stability represented by tex2html_wrap_inline3039.
eqnarray711
The condition can be rearranged as
equation719
which is an equation of a circle on tex2html_wrap_inline2885 complex plane with
equation728

equation734
