Circuit Theory for Power Transfer Networks
Professor, Dr Binboga Siddik Yarman BSc, MEE, PhD · 2010
In circuit theory, a power transfer network is known as a lossless two-port which matches a given voltage generator with internal impedance to a load. The lossless two-port consists of lossless circuit elements such as capacitors, inductors, coupled coils, transmission lines and transformers. In classical circuit theory, circuit elements may be described in terms of their terminal or port-related quantities such as voltage and current or incident and reflected wave relations. This chapter presents elementary definitions of passive and lossless circuit components based on their port voltages and currents. An ideal circuit component may be a resistor R, a capacitor C or an inductor L. The chapter then gives formal circuit theory definitions. It introduces useful properties of the Laplace and Fourier transforms from the design perspective of power transfer networks. Controlled Vocabulary Terms circuit theory; transmission networks
