The renormalized wave quantities (a
1
and b
1
) and the S-matrix S
1
can be calculated
from S
0
and the reference impedances Z
0i
, Z
1i
according to two alternative waveguide
circuit theories.

Traveling waves
In the model of Marks and Williams ("A General Waveguide Circuit Theory"), the
wave quantities a and b are transformed as follows:
