In this article, A spherical representation of omnipotent Smith chart (OSC) for lossy nonreciprocal transmission lines (LNTLs) is presented. Such representation is an extension of OSC to deeply understand the general transmission lines with not only positive parameters but also negative ones. The spherical OSC has great potential in the application of RF systems which involve active devices. The mathematical expressions and the three‐dimensional (3D) graphics of the representation are showed in detail. © 2008 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
