In the previous articles we have seen articles on Network Theory related to Sinusoidal
Steady State Analysis and Electric Resonance. Now we move on to Two Port Networks,
where we discuss concepts such as Symmetric Network, Reciprocal Network, Z Parameters, Y - Parameters, T - Parameters, T - Parameters, h parameters and g
parameters.
These GATE Study Notes are useful for GATE EE, GATE EC, DRDO, IES, BARC, BSNL and
other exams. You should also have these GATE Notes downloaded in PDF to have your
preparation made easy and ace your GATE Exam.
Before you go ahead though, make sure your basic concepts are clear. Read up on the
previous articles in this free GATE Study Material Series.

ii. Current entering at one port is equal to the current living at the same port.

iii. Generally sources are connected at port 1 and loads are connected at port 2.
Symmetric Network
i. A symmetrical network is a network which is divided into two equal halves with each
half is a mirror image of other.
ii. If the network looks same form both the ports then it is said to be symmetrical
otherwise it is said to be asymmetrical.
