This paper presents a circuit simulation and numerical investigation of a circuit featuring a nonlinear inductor designed to induce subharmonic resonances. By incorporating the hysteresis effect of the nonlinear inductor, we successfully introduce and analyze this phenomenon within the circuit. The designed circuit is intended for use in the matching network of an electronically small antenna with the goal of improving antenna's noise performance through the implementation of the subharmonic parametric amplifier.
