 ### Changed
 - Validate mode solver object for large number of grid points on the modal plane.
+- The `TerminalComponentModeler` defaults to the pseudo wave definition of scattering parameters. The new field `s_param_def` can be used to switch between either pseudo or power wave definitions.
 
 ### Fixed
 - Fixed missing amplitude factor and handling of negative normal direction case when making adjoint sources from `DiffractionMonitor`.
 - Improved the robustness of batch jobs. The batch state, including all `task_ids`, is now saved to `batch.hdf5` immediately after upload. This fixes an issue where an interrupted batch (e.g., due to a kernel crash or network loss) would be unrecoverable.
 - Fixed warning for running symmetric adjoint simulations by port to not trigger when there is a single port.
+- Calculation of voltage and current in the `WavePort`, when one type of path integral is supplied and the transmission line mode is lossy.
