Determine the value of \(Z_{11}\) parameter of the given two port network.

Two-port network: a 5 kilohm resistor in series with port 1, a 12 kilohm resistor shunt across the middle, and a 3 kilohm resistor in series with port 2, with V1, I1 at the input and V2, I2 at the output

  • A.\(12\ \mathrm{k\Omega}\)
  • B.\(17\ \mathrm{k\Omega}\)
  • C.\(15\ \mathrm{k\Omega}\)
  • D.\(16\ \mathrm{k\Omega}\)

Answer: B

The z-parameter \(Z_{11} = V_1 / I_1\) with the output port open circuited (\(I_2 = 0\)).


With port 2 open, no current flows in the 3 kilohm resistor, so the input sees the 5 kilohm resistor in series with the 12 kilohm shunt resistor.


\[ Z_{11} = 5 + 12 = 17\ \text{k}\Omega \]


The 3 kilohm resistor does not enter because it carries no current. The value 15 kilohm adds the 12 and 3 and leaves out the 5, 16 kilohm and 12 kilohm do not match any combination of the series arms with the shunt. The answer is 17 kilohm, option B.
