X-Parameters--Nonlinear RF Component Characterization

X Parameters ( a registered trademark of Agilent) are nonlinear network parameters that represent a superset of S-parameters. They extend S-Parameters to work with large signals and non-linear regions for characterizing RF components. To gain access to the fundamental equations, one must sign up in Agilent's partner program.

A common application is the Load-pull measurement.
