Abstract

A time-domain approach is presented to solve nonlinear circuits with lossless transmission lines. Mathematically, the circuits are described by a special kind of nonlinear differentialalgebraic equations (DAEs) with multiple constant delays. In order to directly compute these delay systems in time-domain, decoupling by waveform relaxation (WR) is applied to the systems. For the relaxation-based method we provide a new convergence proof. Numerical experiments are given to illustrate the novel approach.
