Time-domain analysis of networks with internally controlled switches

Abstract

A new computer-oriented method for the timedomain analysis of networks with internally controlled ideal switches is presented. No assumptions are made about the continuity of the circuit response at the switching instants; even Dirac impulses are permitted. In fact, it is shown that Dirac impulses must be considered for the analysis of some switched networks, even though they may only be present for intermediate steps of the analysis. Several topological changes may be needed at each switching instant to ensure that the topology after switching is valid.The theories have been implemented in a computer program SWANN. The network equations are generated with a two-graph modified nodal analysis technique, rather than the state equation formulation. Various internally controlled switches are permitted, such as the ideal diode, thyristor, and voltage and current controlled switches. Numerical results show the generality and accuracy of the method on three switched networks.' In general, if there are I switching elements, there will be 2' different 1057-7122/92$03.00 0 1992 IEEE

Design of feedback gain vector of two-state basic PWM multifeedback regulators for large-signal stability

Behavior-mode simulation of power electronic circuits

“…A rigorous treatment of this problem was presented in [11]. In this work, dirac impulses, together with forward/backward integration, were used to calculate the initial conditions after each switching in order to determine the switching states.…”

“…It is conceptually similar to the technique in [11], but the implementation is more straightforward and simpler. In this technique, intermediate circuit stages are used to determine the switch state.…”

Modeling switched circuits based on wavelet decomposition and neural networks

“…One of these methods is piecewise linearization, in these methods nonlinear components in the circuits or systems are changed with their equivalent linear time invariant component or equivalent ideal linear switches [6][7][8][9][10][11]. For analyzing switched circuits, time domain and frequency domain methods were also studied [3,12]. In [1], the formulation of state and output equations and solutions of switched-systems were presented by using bond graph model with a new simple and more general switch definition.…”
