==== Representation and Interpretation ====
Up to now, we used for the AC signals the formula $x(t)= \sqrt{2} X \cdot \sin (\omega t + \varphi_x)$ - which was quite obvious. \\
However, there is an alternative way to look at the alternating sinusoidal signals.
For this, we look first at a different, but already a familiar problem (see ).
- A mechanical, linear spring with the characteristic constant $D$ is displaced due to a mass $m$ in the Earth's gravitational field. The deflection only based on the gravitational field is $X_0$.
- At the time $t_0=0$ , we deflect this spring a bit more to $X_0 + x(t_0)=X_0 + \hat{X}$ and therefore induce energy into the system.
- When the mass is released, the mass will spring up and down for $t>0$. The signal can be shown as a shadow when the mass is illuminated sideways. \\ For $t>0$, the energy is continuously shifted between potential energy (deflection $x(t)$ around $X_0$) and kinetic energy (${{\rm d}\over{{\rm d}t}}x(t)$)
- When looking onto the course of time of $x(t)$, the signal will behave as: $x(t)= \hat{X} \cdot \sin (\omega t + \varphi_x)$
- The movement of the shadow can also be created by the sideways shadow of a stick on a rotating disc. \\ This means, that a two-dimensional rotation is reduced down to a single dimension.
\\ {{drawio>deflectionspring.svg}} \\
The transformation of the two-dimensional rotation to a one-dimensional sinusoidal signal is also shown in .

The two-dimensional rotation can be represented with a complex number in Euler's formula.
It combines the exponential representation with real part $\Re$ and imaginary part $\Im$ of a complex value:
$$ \underline{x}(t)=\hat{X}\cdot {\rm e}^{{\rm j}(\omega t + \varphi_x)} = \Re(\underline{x}) + {\rm j}\cdot \Im(\underline{x})$$
For the imaginary unit ${\rm i}$ the letter ${\rm j}$ is used in electrical engineering since the letter ${\rm i}$ is already taken for currents.
\\ {{drawio>phasorcomplexplane.svg}} \\
==== Complex Current and Voltage ====
The concepts of complex numbers shall now be applied to voltages and currents.
Up to now, we used the following formula to represent alternating voltages:
$$u(t)= \sqrt{2} U \cdot \sin (\varphi)$$
This is now interpreted as the instantaneous value of a complex vector $\underline{u}(t)$, which rotates given by the time-dependent angle $\varphi = \omega t + \varphi_u$.
\\ {{drawio>voltagephasorcomplexplane.svg}} \\
The parts on the complex plane are then given by:
- The real part $\Re{(\underline{u}(t))} = \sqrt{2}U \cdot \cos (\omega t + \varphi_u)$
- The imaginary part $\Im{(\underline{u}(t))} = \sqrt{2}U \cdot \sin (\omega t + \varphi_u)$
This is equivalent to the complex phasor $\underline{u}(t)=\sqrt{2}U \cdot {\rm e} ^{{\rm j} (\omega t + \varphi_u)}$
The complex phasor can be separated:
\begin{align*}
\underline{u}(t) &=\sqrt{2} U \cdot {\rm e}^{{\rm j} (\omega t + \varphi_u)} \\
&=\sqrt{2}\color{blue} {U \cdot {\rm e}^{{\rm j} \varphi_u}}
\cdot {\rm e}^{{\rm j} \omega t} \\
&=\sqrt{2}\color{blue}{\underline{U}} \cdot {\rm e}^{{\rm j} \omega t} \\
\end{align*}
The **fixed phasor** (in German: //komplexer Festzeiger//) of the voltage is given by $\color{blue}{\underline{U}}= \color{blue}{U \cdot e ^{j \varphi_u}} $
Generally, from now on not only the voltage will be considered as a phasor, but also the current $\underline{I}$ and derived quantities like the impedance $\underline{X}$. \\
Therefore, the known properties of complex numbers from Mathematics 101 can be applied:
* A multiplication with $j$ equals a phase shift of $+90°$
* A multiplication with ${{1}\over{j}}$ equals a phase shift of $-90°$
==== Complex Impedance ====
=== Introduction to Complex Impedance ===
The complex impedance is "nearly" similar calculated like the resistance. In the subchapters before, that impedance $Z$ was calculated by $Z=\frac{U}{I}$. \\
Now the complex impedance is:
\begin{align*}
\underline{Z}&=\frac{\underline{U}}{\underline{I}} \\
&= \Re{(\underline{Z})} + {\rm j} \cdot \Im{(\underline{Z})} \\
&= R + {\rm j} \cdot X \\
&= Z \cdot {\rm e}^{{\rm j} \varphi} \\
&= Z \cdot (\cos \varphi + j \cdot \sin \varphi )
\end{align*}
With
* the resistance $R$ (in German: //Widerstand//) as the pure real part
* the reactance $X$ (in German: //Blindwiderstand//) as the pure imaginary part
* the impedance $Z$ (in German: //Scheinwiderstand//) as the complex number given by the __complex__ addition of resistance and the reactance as a complex number
The impedance can be transformed from Cartesian to polar coordinates by:
* $Z=\sqrt{R^2 + X^2}$
* $\varphi = \arctan \frac{X}{R} $
The other way around it is possible to transform by:
* $R = Z \cos \varphi$
* $X = Z \sin \varphi$
=== Application on pure Loads ===
With the complex impedance in mind, the can be expanded to:
^ Load $\phantom{U\over I}$ ^ ^ integral representation $\phantom{U\over I}$ ^ complex impedance $\underline{Z}={{\underline{U}}\over{\underline{I}}}$ ^ impedance $Z \phantom{U\over I}$ ^ phase $\varphi \phantom{U\over I}$ ^
| Resistance | $R\phantom{U\over I}$ | ${u} = R \cdot {i}$ | $Z_R = R $ | $Z_R = R $ | $\varphi_R = 0$ |
| Capacitance | $C$ | ${u} ={{1}\over{C}}\cdot \int {\rm i} dt$ | $Z_C = {{1}\over{{\rm j}\omega \cdot C}} = {{-{\rm j}}\over{\omega \cdot C}}$ | $Z_C = {{1}\over{\omega \cdot C}}$ | $\varphi_C = -{{1}\over{2}}\pi \hat{=} -90°$ |
| Inductance | $L$ | ${u} = L \cdot {{\rm d}\over{{\rm d}t}} {i}$ | $Z_L = {\rm j} \omega \cdot L $ | $Z_L = \omega \cdot L $ | $\varphi_L = +{{1}\over{2}}\pi \hat{=} +90°$ |
\\ \\
The relationship between ${\rm j}$ and integral calculus should be clear:
- The derivative of a sinusoidal value - and therefore a phasor - can simply be written as "$\cdot {\rm j}\omega$", \\ which also means a phase shift of $+90°$: \\ \begin{align*}{{\rm d}\over{{\rm d}t}} {\rm e}^{{\rm j}(\omega t + \varphi_x)} = {\rm j} \cdot {\rm e}^{{\rm j}(\omega t + \varphi_x)}\end{align*}
- The integral of a sinusoidal value - and therefore a phasor - can simply be written as "$\cdot (-{{1}\over{ {\rm j}\omega}})$", \\ which also means a phase shift of $-90°$.((in general, here the integration constant must be considered. This is however often neglectable since only AC values (without a DC value) are considered.))
\begin{align*}
\int {\rm e}^{{\rm j}(\omega t + \varphi_x)}
= {{1}\over{\rm j\omega}} \cdot {\rm e}^{{\rm j}(\omega t + \varphi_x)}
= -{{\rm j}\over{\omega}} \cdot {\rm e}^{{\rm j}(\omega t + \varphi_x)}
\end{align*}
Once a fixed input voltage is given, the voltage phasor $\underline{U}$, the current phasor $\underline{I}$, and the impedance phasor $\underline{Z}$. In these phasors are shown.
\\ {{drawio>phasorspureloads.svg}} \\
=== Application on Impedance Networks ===
\\
== Simple Networks ==
In the chapter [[:electrical_engineering_1:simple_circuits#Kirchhoff's Circuit Laws]] we already had a look at simple networks like a series or parallel circuit of resistors. \\
These formulas not only apply to ohmic resistors but also to impedances:
\\ {{drawio>SimpleNetworks.svg}} \\
Similarly, the voltage divider, the current divider, the star-delta transformation, and the Thevenin and Northon Theorem can be used, by substituting resistances with impedances.
This means for example, every linear source can be represented by an output impedance $\underline{Z}_o$ and an ideal voltage source $\underline{U}$.
== More "complex" Networks ==
For more complex problems having AC values in circuitries, the following approach is beneficial. \\
This concept will be used in the next chapter and in circuit design.
\\ {{drawio>ACapproach.svg}} \\
\\
For a complex number are always two values are needed. These are either
- the real part (e.g. the resistance) and the imaginary part (e.g. the reactance), or
- the absolute value (e.g. the absolute value of the impedance) and the phase
Therefore, instead of the form $\underline{Z}=Z\cdot {\rm e}^{{\rm j}\varphi}$ for the phasors often the form $Z\angle{\varphi}$ is used.

==== Worked examples ====
{{fa>pencil?32}}
Two ideal AC voltage sources $1$ and $2$ shall generate the RMS voltage drops $U_1 = 100~\rm V$ and $U_2 = 120~\rm V$. \\
The phase shift between the two sources shall be $+60°$. The phase of source $1$ shall be $\varphi_1=0°$. \\
The two sources shall be located in series.
1. Draw the phasor diagram for the two voltage phasors and the resulting phasor.
The phasor diagram looks roughly like this:
{{drawio>phasordiagram6511.svg}}
2. Calculate the resulting voltage and phase.
By the law of cosine, we get:
\begin{align*}
U&= \sqrt{{{U_1 }^2}+{{U_1 }^2}-2{U_1 } \cdot{U_2 }\cdot \cos(180°- {\varphi_2})} \\
&= \sqrt{{{100~V}^2}+{{120~V}^2}-2\cdot{100~V} \cdot{120~V}\cdot \cos(120°)}
\end{align*}
The angle is by the tangent of the relation of the imaginary part to the real part of the resulting voltage.
\begin{align*}
\varphi&= \arctan 2 \left(\frac{Im\{\underline{U}\}} {Re\{\underline{U}\}} \right)\\
&= \arctan 2 \left(\frac{Im\{\underline{U}_1\}+Im\{\underline{U}_2\}}{Re\{\underline{U}_1\}+\{\underline{U}_2\}} \right)\\
&= \arctan 2 \left(\frac{{U}_2 \cdot\sin(\varphi_2)}{{U}_1 +{U}_2\cos(\varphi_2)} \right)\\
&= \arctan 2 \left(\frac{120~{\rm V}\cdot\sin(60°)} {100~{\rm V}+120~V\cos(60°)} \right)
\end{align*}
\begin{align*}
U &=190.79~{\rm V} \\
\varphi&=33°
\end{align*}
3. Is the resulting voltage the RMS value or the amplitude?
The resulting voltage is the RMS value. \\ \\
\\ The source $2$ shall now be turned around (the previous plus pole is now the minus pole and vice versa).
4. Draw the phasor diagram for the two voltage phasors and the resulting phasor for the new circuit.
The phasor diagram looks roughly like this. \\
But have a look at the solution for question 5!
{{drawio>phasordiagram6514.svg}}
5. Calculate the resulting voltage and phase.
By the law of cosine, we get:
\begin{align*}
U&= \sqrt{{{U_1 }^2}+{{U_1 }^2}-2{U_1 } \cdot{U_2 }\cdot \cos(180°- {\varphi_1})}
&= \sqrt{{{100~V}^2}+{{120~V}^2}-2\cdot{100~V} \cdot{120~V}\cdot \cos(60°)}
\end{align*}
The angle is by the tangent of the relation of the imaginary part to the real part of the resulting voltage.
\begin{align*}
\varphi&= \arctan 2 \left(\frac{Im\{\underline{U}\}} {Re\{\underline{U}\}} \right)\\
&= \arctan 2 \left(\frac{Im\{\underline{U}_1\}+Im\{\underline{U}_2\}}{Re\{\underline{U}_1\}+\{\underline{U}_2\}} \right)\\
&= \arctan 2 \left(\frac{-{U}_2 \cdot\sin(\varphi_2)}{{U}_1 -{U}_2\cos(\varphi_2)} \right)\\
&= \arctan 2 \left(\frac{-120~{\rm V}\cdot\sin(60°) }{100~{\rm V}-120~V\cos(60°)} \right) \\
&= \arctan 2 \left(\frac{-103.92...~{\rm V} }{+40~{\rm V}} \right)
\end{align*}
The calculated (positive) horizontal and (negative) vertical dimension for the voltage indicates a phasor in the fourth quadrant. Does it seem right? \\
The phasor diagram which was shown in answer 4. cannot be correct. \\
With the correct lengths and angles, the real phasor diagram looks like this:
{{drawio>phasordiagram6515.svg}}
Here the phasor is in the fourth quadrant with a negative angle. \\
\begin{align*}
U &=111.355~{\rm V}\\
\varphi&=-68.948°
\end{align*}
Be aware that some of the calculators only provide $\tan^{-1}$ or $\arctan$ and not $\arctan2$! \\
Therefore, you have always to check whether the solution lies in the correct quadrant.

The following circuit shall be given. \\
{{drawio>ExampleSeriesCircuit.svg}}
This circuit is used with different component values, which are given in the following. \\
Calculate the RMS value of the missing voltage and the phase shift $\varphi$ between $U$ and $I$.
1. $U_R = 10~\rm V$, $U_L = 10~\rm V$, $U_C = 20~\rm V$, $U=\rm ?$
The drawing of the voltage pointers is as follows:{{drawio>SeriesPhasor.svg}}
The voltage U is determined by the law of Pythagoras
\begin{align*}
U &= \sqrt{{{U_R } ^2}+{({U_L }-{U_C }})^2} \\
&= \sqrt{(10~{\rm V})^2+ {({10~{\rm V}}-{20~{\rm V}}})^2}
\end{align*}
The phase shift angle is calculated by simple geometry.
\begin{align*}
\tan(\varphi)&=\frac{{U_L }-{U_C }}{U_R}\\
&=\frac{{10~{\rm V}}-{20~{\rm V}}}{10~{\rm V}}
\end{align*}
Considering that the angle is in the fourth quadrant we get:
\begin{equation*}
U=\sqrt{2}\cdot 10~{\rm V} = 14.1~{\rm V} \qquad \varphi=-45°
\end{equation*}
2. $U_R = ?$, $U_L = 150~\rm V$, $U_C = 110~\rm V$, $U=50~\rm V$
The drawing of the voltage pointers is as follows: {{drawio>SeriesPhasor2.svg}}
The voltage $U_R$ is determined by the law of Pythagoras
\begin{align*}
U_R&=\sqrt{{U ^2}+{({U_L} -{U_C}} )^2}\\
&=\sqrt{(50~\rm V)^2 +{(150~\rm V -110~\rm V})^2}
\end{align*}
The phase shift angle is calculated by simple geometry.
\begin{align*}
\tan(\varphi)&=\frac{{U_L} -{U_C} }{U_R}\\
&=\frac{{150~\rm V}-{110~\rm V}}{30~\rm V}
\end{align*}
Considering that the angle is in the fourth quadrant we get:
\begin{equation*}
U_R= 30~{\rm V}\qquad \varphi=53.13°
\end{equation*}

Two complex impedances $\underline{Z}_1$ and $\underline{Z}_2$ are investigated.
The resulting impedance for a series circuit is $60~\Omega + \rm j \cdot 0 ~\Omega $.
The resulting impedance for a parallel circuit is $25~\Omega + \rm j \cdot 0 ~\Omega $.
What are the values for $\underline{Z}_1$ and $\underline{Z}_2$?
#@HiddenBegin_HTML~656Sol,Solution~@#
It's a good start to write down all definitions of the given values:
* the given values for the series circuit ($\square_\rm s$) and the parallel circuit ($\square_\rm p$) are: \begin{align*} R_\rm s = 60 ~\Omega , \quad X_\rm s = 0 ~\Omega \\ R_\rm p = 25 ~\Omega , \quad X_\rm p = 0 ~\Omega \\ \end{align*}
* the series circuit and the parallel circuit results into: \begin{align*} R_{\rm s} = \underline{Z}_1 + \underline{Z}_2 \tag{1} \\ R_{\rm p} = \underline{Z}_1 || \underline{Z}_2 \tag{2} \\ \end{align*}
* the unknown values of the two impedances are: \begin{align*} \underline{Z}_1 = R_1 + {\rm j}\cdot X_1 \tag{3} \\ \underline{Z}_2 = R_2 + {\rm j}\cdot X_2 \tag{4} \\ \end{align*}
Based on $(1)$,$(3)$ and $(4)$:
\begin{align*}
R_\rm s &= \underline{Z}_1 &&+ \underline{Z}_2 \\
&= R_1 + {\rm j}\cdot X_1 &&+ R_2 + {\rm j}\cdot X_2 \\
\rightarrow 0 &= R_1 + R_2 - R_\rm s &&+ {\rm j}\cdot (X_1 + X_2) \\
\end{align*}
Real value and imaginary value must be zero:
\begin{align*}
R_1 &= R_{\rm s} - R_2 \tag{5} \\
X_1 &= - X_2 \tag{6}
\end{align*}
Based on $(2)$ with $R_\rm s = \underline{Z}_1 + \underline{Z}_2$ $(1)$:
\begin{align*}
R_{\rm p} &= {{\underline{Z}_1 \cdot \underline{Z}_2}\over{\underline{Z}_1 + \underline{Z}_2}} \\
&= {{\underline{Z}_1 \cdot \underline{Z}_2}\over{R_\rm s}} \\ \\
R_{\rm p} \cdot R_{\rm s} &= \underline{Z}_1 \cdot \underline{Z}_2 \\
&= (R_1 + {\rm j}\cdot X_1)\cdot (R_2 + {\rm j}\cdot X_2) \\
&= R_1 R_2 + {\rm j}\cdot (R_1 X_2 + R_2 X_1) - X_1 X_2 \\
\end{align*}
Substituting $R_1$ and $X_1$ based on $(5)$ and $(6)$:
\begin{align*}
R_{\rm p} \cdot R_{\rm s} &= (R_{\rm s} - R_2 ) R_2 + {\rm j}\cdot ((R_{\rm s} - R_2 ) X_2 - R_2 X_2) + X_2 X_2 \\
\rightarrow 0 &= R_{\rm s} R_2 - R_2^2 + X_2^2 - R_{\rm p} \cdot R_{\rm s} + {\rm j}\cdot ((R_{\rm s} - R_2 ) X_2 - R_2 X_2) \\
\end{align*}
Again real value and imaginary value must be zero:
\begin{align*}
0 &= j\cdot ((R_{\rm s} - R_2 ) X_2 - R_2 X_2) \\
&= R_{\rm s}X_2 - 2 \cdot R_2 X_2 \\
\rightarrow R_2 = {{1}\over{2}} R_{\rm s} \tag{7} \\ \\
0 &= R_{\rm s} R_2 - R_2^2 + X_2^2 - R_{\rm p} \cdot R_{\rm s} \\
&= R_{\rm s} ({{1}\over{2}} R_{\rm s}) - ({{1}\over{2}} R_{\rm s})^2 - X_2^2 - R_{\rm p} \cdot R_{\rm s} \\
&= {{1}\over{4}} R_{\rm s}^2 + X_2^2 - R_{\rm p} \cdot R_{\rm s} \\
\rightarrow X_2 = \pm \sqrt{R_{\rm p} \cdot R_{\rm s} - {{1}\over{4}} R_{\rm s}^2 } \tag{8} \\ \\
\end{align*}
The concluding result is:
\begin{align*}
(5)+(7): \quad R_1 &= {{1}\over{2}} R_{\rm s} \\
(7): \quad R_2 &= {{1}\over{2}} R_{\rm s} \\
(6)+(8) \quad X_1 &= \mp \sqrt{R_{\rm p} \cdot R_{\rm s} - {{1}\over{4}} R_{\rm s}^2 } \\
(8): \quad X_2 &= \pm \sqrt{R_{\rm p} \cdot R_{\rm s} - {{1}\over{4}} R_{\rm s}^2 }
\end{align*}
