The level of social and economic development of modern society is determined by the volume, speed and
quality of information processing by methods and technical means. Measurement and information
processing systems are becoming an integral part of production automation.
The development of radio electronics is inextricably linked with the development of measurements, and
the state of modern radio electronics is largely determined by the level of development of measurement
methods and the availability of sufficiently advanced measuring equipment to measure the parameters of
radio-electronic devices, in particular transistors, allows: first, exploitation; second, to provide the source
material for calculating the devices; third, to judge their internal properties and technological features in
an average way; fourth, to design new, high-quality devices.
The intensification and automation of the processes of production, complication and expansion of the
front of scientific experiments entails the need to develop fundamentally new methods and means of
measuring transistor parameters based on new algorithms and computers.
Increasing the level of semiconductor devices, improving their performance, will inevitably affect
potential stability over a wide frequency range. Classical methods and standard measuring equipment arenot designed to measure the parameters of potentially unstable transistors. The measurement systems are
uncontrollably excited, which increases the measurement error. Therefore, the current task is to measure
the parameters of both transistors in particular and quadruplets in general, in the frequency range of
potential instability.
The clock speed at which modern computer technology operates is very close to the microwave range
(ultra high frequencies), which makes the problem of measuring and calculating various functional units
of computers and operating elements quite relevant.
The development of new methods and means for measuring the parameters of potentially unstable
quadruplets in the microwave range is an important scientific area, which can significantly improve the
accuracy of their measurement on standard equipment.
Improving the performance of the microwave range devices can be achieved both through the use of a
fundamentally new element base and through the use of new circuit designs. Promising in this regard is
the direction of using the reactive properties of transistors, as well as transistor structures with a negative
resistance for the construction of information-measuring systems and operating and computing devices of
the microwave range.
The graphical methods for determining the parameters of an equivalent four-pole according to the
measurement results are, as a rule, much more convenient than analytical ones. Having a mathematical
equation and its graphical interpretation, it is relatively easy to determine the required quantities by
solving graphical techniques. There are several ways of graphically depicting the relationships that
characterize the impedance (conductivity). The following two are the most convenient:
1) pie chart of total resistance in rectangular coordinates [1];
2) circular diagram of the total resistance in polar coordinates, proposed for the first time by Soviet
scientist AR Volpert [2].

Technology, energy, agriculture transport AIC is a scholarly professional journal with a long-standing history and stable academic tradition, reflecting the evolution of engineering and technical sciences within the agro-industrial sector of Ukraine.
The journal was founded in 1997 under the title Bulletin of Vinnytsia State Agricultural Institute. According to the Resolution of the Presidium of the Higher Attestation Commission of Ukraine dated September 11, 1997, the publication obtained the status of a professional scientific journal, which enabled the publication of the main results of doctoral and candidate dissertations in technical sciences. From its inception, the journal positioned itself as an academic platform for addressing current issues of mechanization, electrification, and technical support of agricultural production.
During 2001–2014, the journal was published under the title Proceedings of Vinnytsia National Agrarian University. Series: Technical Sciences (State Registration Certificate of Print Media KV No. 16644-5116 PR dated April 30, 2010). Throughout this period, a systematic approach to the selection and peer review of scientific manuscripts was established, the thematic scope of publications was expanded, and continuity of scientific directions as well as the development of sectoral engineering schools was ensured.
Since 2015, the journal has been published under its current title, Technology, energy, agriculture transport AIC (State Registration Certificate No. 21906-11806 R dated March 12, 2016). The change of title reflected the expansion of the journal’s thematic coverage and its orientation toward interdisciplinary research in mechanical engineering, energy systems, electrical engineering, transport technologies, automation, and digital solutions for the agro-industrial complex.
