How do I find S parameters from Z parameters, for a two port network.

I am sorry to ask such an elementary question but I am not from an engineering background. I have tried to search answers online but could not find it.

This table gives the relationship between S, Z, Y and ABCD parameters. It's from David Pozar's "Microwave Engineering", 4th edition, page 192. If you are interested on the details, you can consult the book.

Table 4.2 from Pozar

    \$\begingroup\$ @ChetanWaghela Z parameters relate currents to voltages. To do the transformation you must find the relationship between currents, voltages and incident and reflected power waves. I will add it to the answer later. \$\endgroup\$
