Hi guys, I've been doing multitone Harmonic Balance simulation with ADS. I've been using "labels" to monitor the evolution of the power amplitude of the various tones between the devices. I've noticed that the value of the power amplitude shown is always a little bit higher than the expected, and after some controls I've found out the reason: it was the effect of the S22 parameter of the "exiting" device, and S11 of the "entering" device (the bouncing signal increases the power level).
I would like to know how to overcome this effect, and be able to monitor the effective transmitted signal, and not the consequence of all this bouncing....
Or at least know how you guys plan and deal with these types projects;

Thank You,
LandLack
