Learning Objectives

After completing this chapter, you should be able to:

  • Describe sinusoidal waveforms in mathematical terms.
  • Express complex waveforms using basic Fourier analysis.
  • Perform mathematical operations using complex numbers.
  • Draw phasor diagrams for complex numbers.
  • Compute and plot capacitive and inductive reactance as a function of frequency.
  • Compute and plot complex impedance as a function of frequency.
  • Describe the relationships between resistance, reactance, impedance, conductance, susceptance and admittance
