  2. Power System Driven by a modulated signal

  3. Example 1: a Resonant Network Excited by a Modulated Signal

  4. Example 2: Electronic Ballast

  5. A Primer to Envelope Simulation • Any analog modulated signal (AM, FM or PM) can be described by the following expression: • The Current in the network excited by u(t):

  6. Phasor Analysis • Inductance

  7. Phasor Analysis Capacitance Resistance

  8. Splitting the Network into Two Cross-Coupled Components - Imaginary and Real

  10. Simulation Alternatives • Cycle-by-cycle (full simulation) • High and low frequencies • Very long simulation • Only transient • AC transfer function -> point-by-point • Envelope simulation (Large Signal -Previous study) • Only low frequency • Only transient • AC transfer function -> point-by-point

  18. Objectives of this Study • To extend the envelope simulation method to AC analysis • A method that would not need an analytical derivation • Same model compatible with DC, AC, and Transient analysis types

  19. Proposed Method – Small Signal Analysis Using AC–Simulation • Amplitude modulation phasor The source is linear and suitable for AC analysis – as is

  24. Frequency Response of the Network (unmodulated input signal) using DC-sweep • DC-sweep in envelope simulation is equivalent to frequency sweep in full simulation • The parameter of DC sweep is a carrier frequency fc • The source for DC sweep:

  25. Example: Frequency Response of Piezoelectric Transformer with Different Resistive Loads

  26. Conclusions • Envelope simulation method was extended to cover all simulation types: Transient, AC, DC. • Method is suitable for any linear circuit. • Method is also suitable for nonlinear circuits that can be linearized for small signal.
