Under high-frequency voltage excitation, each transformer winding can be regarded as a passive linear two-port network composed of distributed parameters including linear resistance, inductance (mutual inductance) and capacitance. Its internal characteristics are described by the transfer function H(jω). When winding deformation occurs, internal distributed inductance and capacitance parameters change, shifting the zeros and poles of the equivalent network transfer function H(jω) and altering the frequency response characteristics of the network.
