Sum rules and constraints on passive systems with applications in electromagnetics
Författare
Summary, in English
A passive system is one that cannot produce energy,
a property that naturally poses constraints on the system. In
this paper there is a review of some results on linear, time
translational invariant, continuous, causal and passive systems,
where it turns out that Herglotz functions are related to the
Fourier transform of the impulse response of such systems.
Some well known facts of this function class is considered,
and a set of integral identities and an outline of the proof of
these are presented. The identities may be used to derive sum
rules and constraints on various physical systems. The theory
is illuminated with two examples from electromagnetics: the
first revisits Fano’s matching equations, while the latter makes
a link to the Kramers-Kronig relations and discusses physical
limitations on metamaterials.
